While BP has been writing checks to victims of the oil spill, their records show that most of these claims have been property damage or loss of income and not any were concerned with bodily injury.

Records from BP show that 1,105 bodily injury claims have been made including claims of stress, nausea, respiratory ailments, and anxiety. The lack of payment for these bodily injury claims may mean that the company is still assessing on how to handle these claims.

A law professor at Indiana University commented that BP will be very careful about what they pay because they want to know how much liability they have for the accident regarding bodily injury claims.
