Deepwater Horizon center opens in LC

Deepwater Horizon Claims Administrator Patrick A. Juneau announced the opening of a Claimant Assistance Center in Lake Charles.

“As we continue to process claims across the five-state region, we are constantly looking at ways to better serve the claimants,” Juneau said.

“With the reduction in walk-in traffic in Bridge City, Texas, we determined we could better serve the southwest region of the state with opening this new Claimant Assistance Center in Lake Charles and closing the Bridge City location.”

The new location is at 3620 Gerstner Memorial Drive, Suite L. The telephone number is 562-5182.

Juneau said that in addition to filing a claim at the center, people can file online at www.deepwaterhorizoneconomicsettlment.com.
