Salmonella Recall

Recalls of food products due to the potential risk of Salmonella food poisoning are issued by the food manufacturer or the government. Generally, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Food Safety Inspection Service (FSIS), an arm of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, or the food manufacturer issue the recalls.

Although a process for informing the public is in place, many consumers are left not knowing that food they have in their refrigerator may be harboring potentially-fatal Salmonella bacteria. At PritzkerOlsen, P.A. , we care about the prevention of Salmonella food poisoning. As a public service, we provide information on Salmonella recalls and news alerts and other information on Salmonella Poisoning.

Lawyer Fred Pritzker has had years of experience with foodborne illness cases. He is familiar with the pain and suffering experienced by the victims of food poisoning and their families. His excellence in the area of food poisoning lawsuits has earned him a national reputation. To learn more about Fred Pritzker, please see Food Poisoning Attorney.
