Crivella West Launches BP Claims System

Carnegie, Pa.-based Crivella West, a vendor of risk management and litigation systems, has launched Crivella West Knowledge Kiosk BP Claims Central, an online platform to help reduce the clerical burden on attorneys helping Gulf oil spill claimants. The system bridges the claimant, counsel and the Fund from which claims against BP are paid, the company says. It includes an executive dashboard that displays and reports the status of all claimants, automating client intake, case evaluations and documentation.
