Listeria Outbreaks - Lawyer and Lawsuit
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) defines a food poisoning outbreak as an incident in which two or more persons experience a similar illness resulting from the ingestion of a common food. Listeria outbreaks are determined using DNA fingerprinting.
Because the incubation period for Listeria can be as long as 70 days, there are few Listeria outbreaks and the food source of Listeria outbreaks is often not pinpointed. Even so, if you have been diagnosed with listeriosis (Listeria infection), please contact us. Our Listeria lawyers have had extensive experience with Listeria lawsuits.
If you or someone you love has been hospitalized with listeriosis, lawyers at Pritzker | Olsen, P.A. are available for a free consultation regarding your legal rights and remedies. Call toll-free at 1-888-377-8900, email info@pritzkerlaw.com, or submit our free case consultation form.
