Cumming Food Poisoning Attorney

Food Poisoning Incidents

While most people recover from food poisoning quite quickly with little or no medical treatment, there is still a large incidence of individuals being severely harmed by such an event.  The United States Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates the 300,000 patients are hospitalized and 5,000 deaths occur each year due to food-borne illness.  Children, pregnant women and the elderly are at the highest risk of suffering complications from food poisoning.

Contaminated food products, foreign objects in food, negligently prepared food and outbreaks of food-borne illness are unacceptable.  You should be able to purchase and consume food without then suffering great pain and illness, which in some cases can be life-threatening.  If you or a loved one has become ill or died as a result of food poisoning, contact a Cumming personal injury lawyer for help with your personal injury or wrongful death claim.
