    Each year, thousands of people in the United States fall victim to food poisoning. Recently, there have been outbreaks of food-borne illnesses tied to bacteria such as E. coli and salmonella. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimate that there are 76 million cases of food poisoning in the United States each year. Of these cases, approximately 300,000 people will be hospitalized and 5,000 people will die.

    Food usually becomes contaminated from poor sanitation or preparation. Food handlers who do not wash their hands after using the bathroom or have infections themselves often cause contamination. Improperly packaged food stored at the wrong temperature also promotes contamination. While most cases of food poisoning are not serious, some cases of severe food poisoning can result in long-term illness and death.

    The Las Vegas food poisoning lawyers of Wright & Weiner have handled serious cases of food borne illnesses. Whether the food poisoning is the result of improperly processed food, unsanitary conditions, contaminated food workers or tainted food, the affects can be serious, long-lasting or even fatal. Food contaminated with E coli, hepatitis virus, salmonella and other bacterium or viruses can produce painful, long-lasting consequences including kidney failure, liver failure and death. Infants and elderly people have the greatest risk for food poisoning. You are also at higher risk if you have a serious medical condition, like kidney disease or diabetes, a weakened immune system, or you travel outside of the U.S. to areas where there is more exposure to organisms that cause food poisoning. Pregnant and breastfeeding women have to be especially careful

The Las Vegas food poisoning lawyers at the Wright & Weiner Law Firm can help you win compensation for past and future medical bills, missed work, long-term health problems or disabilities, wrongful death, emotional trauma and other damages you incurred by simply trusting that your food was safe.
