  • BP Oil Spill - Forcing Them to Pay Billions - The BP oil spill is widely considered to be the worst pollution disaster in American history. As Co-Lead Counsel, Steve led the charge on behalf of thousands of shrimpers, oysterman, and other businesses devastated by the spill. Our firm was instrumental in negotiating the uncapped, multi billion dollar settlement with BP. The settlement ended up being so favorable to victims of the spill that BP actually took the unprecedented step of appealing the terms of a settlement to which it had already agreed in writing. Our firm was instrumental in spear heading the BP trial.

Santa Barbara

Discover the city of Santa Barbara, California, the birthplace of Earth Day. A 1969 oil platform blowout off the coast of Santa Barbara led to a wave of environmental laws nationwide. That gave impetus to what we consider now the cornerstones to the modern environmental movement. A year later, the first Earth Day was held followed by the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency. A succession of other laws protecting water, marine life and endangered species followed.
