The nation watched in horror as the news broke about the deadly Transocean rig explosion. The tragic accident occurred on April 20, 2010 and crewmembers had only minutes to evacuate and get to safety. Some of the 126 people who were onboard were never found, leaving their families to wonder about their unfortunate fates.

It didn't take long for the companies involved, including Transocean and BP, to take action. Transocean reportedly asked rig workers to sign a waiver, before they were even able to see their families, who were waiting anxiously to see their loved ones. As BP's safety record came under scrutiny, the oil company tried to claim that there wasn't a trend in its recent string of accidents.

The companies weren't the only ones to act fast, as countless lawyer ads started popping up everywhere, offering to help injured workers and urging them to quickly file their injury claims. That is the last thing that rig workers wanted to do (or should do), as they needed time to internalize what had just happened and seek the comfort of their friends and family members.

At the Law Offices of Vujasinovic & Beckcom P.L.L.C. we believe that immediate action and making rash decisions is the wrong approach. If you or your family member was injured in the explosion, you need to take the time to education yourself and you do not need to feel pressured to hire the first maritime attorney you talk to.

That is why we recommend that you read the helpful articles and blogs on our website and call us with your questions at (877) 724-7800.
