Oil and Gasoline Spills IN New York

Periconi, LLC • Litigating to recover costs from liable parties and insurance  companies on behalf of commercial property owners

Periconi, LLC  provides experienced representation for business and commercial property owners facing the expensive and difficult task of cleaning up petroleum contamination. Oil spills and gasoline leaks pose significant danger to New York communities and the environment, with serious potential health risks arising from soil and groundwater contamination. The attorneys of Periconi, LLC work to limit the financial burden on owners and operators of commercial property. For experienced representation in any matter involving an oil or gas spill, contact the environmental lawyers of Periconi, LLC .

Periconi, LLC represents clients facing liability for oil & gasoline spills due to:

• Corroded underground storage tanks
• Heating system repairs
• Fuel tank overfills
• Spillage during commercial delivery

Because of the urgency involved in conducting an immediate cleanup effort, the New York Environmental Protection and Spill Compensation Fund often assists in covering initial cleanup costs for a New York oil and gasoline spill. This money is not a grant. The responsible party must reimburse all funds applied toward cleaning up the spill. Owners of commercial properties and apartment buildings often have insurance that may cover all or a portion of the cleanup expenses, but individual homeowners' policies typically do not cover petroleum spills of any type. Oil or gas spills that involve insurance policies almost always go to litigation. The litigators of Periconi, LLC aggressively represent their clients in court.

If an oil spill or gas leak has been caused by an oil supply or repair company or other third party, Periconi, LLC will work to hold that party responsible in a cost recovery action or contribution action.
