Plaintiff law firm Sheller P.C. is looking to get paid for its work as part of a consortium of law firms representing claimants seeking reimbursement for damages from the explosion of BP’s Deepwater Horizon drilling rig and the resulting oil spill.
Sheller has sued two Florida law firms that headed up the consortium known as Gulf Action Spill Plaintiffs, or GASP, in Philadelphia Common Pleas Court. The firm claims Tallahassee-based Howard & Associates, as head of the consortium, and Coral Gables-based Lyons & Farrar, as the office where all claims were processed, have not paid Sheller any fees for the work it did for the consortium and stopped keeping Sheller attorneys updated on the claims and several class actions GASP has filed, according to the complaint.
