FOOD POISONING | CALIFORNIA PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER | ATTORNEY
Food poisoning at restaurants and food vendors can result in serious medical conditions and in rare cases, death. Food poisoning can be caused by:
- Staph aureus
- E. coli enteritis
- Salmonella
- Shigella
- Campylobacter
- Cholera
- Botulism
- Mushroom poisoning
- Listeria
- Bacillus cereus
- Fish poisoning
- Yersinia
These conditions are often avoidable through proper food handling and storage. Improper temperatures, food contamination and improper food preparation can lead to food poisoning. Infants and the elderly are most at risk of food poisoning. Common scenarios involve undercooked meat, spoiled food and contamination of food by other food or chemicals.
If you have suffered from food poisoning, you should immediately document the circumstances and if possible, save the unused portion of food for testing. You should also document any communication you have had with the vendor and contact us immediately.
