Foodborne Illness

Thousands of people each year are seriously injured and even die as a result of ingesting contaminated food.  If you have been poisoned with any of the following bacteria, contact us immediately so we can begin an investigation into your case.

There are three factors that generally must be proven in order to make a claim in a food poisoning case.

• There should be evidence to show that the food was contaminated with foodborne bacteria. (This can be shown by either scientific confirmation, or sometimes if a group of people became ill around the same time at a particular restaurant.)
• Proof is needed to show that the contaminated food actually caused the illness.
• As a result of the food poisoning, the person should be able to show he or she was harmed physically, mentally or financially.

If you or a loved one has contracted a foodborne illness, please contact our personal injury attorneys today.
