Pritzker Olsen Attorneys
Steak E. coli Outbreak
Attorney Fred Pritzker has been retained by an 18 year-old woman from Ashtabula, Ohio who was sickened after eating beef processed by National Steak and Poultry, an Owasso, Oklahoma meat processor. The steak was contaminated with E. coli O157:H7, a deadly foodborne pathogen.
Our client contracted an E. coli infection and then developed hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), a complication of E. coli that causes kidney failure, brain damage, heart problems, pancreatitis and other serious medical conditions. In the case of our client, she was hospitalized for weeks and almost died. She was on dialysis for months and now suffers from decreased kidney function and hypertension. She faces a lifetime of medical problems and medical bills that should have been prevented.

Steak E. coli Outbreak Linked to National Steak and Poultry
In the fall of 2009, an outbreak of over 20 E. coli O157 infections was associated with steak served at restaurants in California, Colorado, Florida, Hawaii, Iowa, Indiana, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah and Washington. As stated above, the steak was processed by National Steak and Poultry.
In response to this outbreak, National Steak and Poultry recalled about 248,000 pounds of blade-tenderized, non-intact steaks. Read about the National Steak and Poultry recall.
According to National Steak and Poultry and news reports, some of the recalled steak was sold to Applebee's, Olive Garden, Moe's, Carino's Italian Restaurant and KRM Restaurant Group, the owner of 54th Street Grill and Bar.
If you or a family member has been diagnosed with E. coli poisoning, hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) and/or thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP), we would like to hear from you.
Manufacturer and Restaurant Liability for E. coli in Steak
Under federal law that was created in 1999, non-intact beef that is injected with brine is “adulterated” if it is contaminated with E. coli O157:H7. This means that someone who contracts an E. coli infection from a brine-injected non-intact steak product can sue the manufacturer of that steak product and the restaurant where it was served under strict liability laws. The E. coli victim does not have to prove negligence on anyone’s part to recover medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering and other damages under strict liability laws.
