JBS Swift Beef Recall:
Lawsuit and Lawyer Information
The following JBS Swift Beef recall lawsuit information is provided by Pritzker Olsen attorneys. To contact our National E. coli law firm, please call toll-free at 1-888-377-8900 or submit the firm's free case consultation form.
In response to an E. coli outbreak that has sickened at least 23 people, JBS Swift Beef Company, a Colorado firm, recalled 380,000 pounds of beef products that may be contaminated with E. coli O157:H7. These products were distributed nationally. Read more about the JBS Swift Outbreak of E. coli.
This June 28, 2009 JBS Swift Beef recall is an expansion of a June 24 JBS Swift Beef recall that involved 41,280 pounds of JBS Swift beef products distributed to Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, Oregon, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah and Wisconsin.
The recalled JBS Swift Beef products were produced on April 21, 2009 and were distributed both nationally and internationally to establishments and retail stores nationwide for further processing. This means that consumers have to contact their point of purchase to determine if beef they consumed or beef they are storing is part of this JBS Swift Beef recall.
This also means that several parties may be liable for any illness you or your loved one suffered after eating JBS Swift beef at a restaurant or purchased at a grocery store.
The recalled products include intact cuts of beef, such as primals, sub-primals, or boxed beef typically used for steaks and roasts rather than ground beef. FSIS is aware that some of these products may have been further processed into ground products by other companies. The highest risk products for consumers are raw ground product, trim or other non-intact product made from the products subject to the recall.
