New Hampshire Food Poisoning Lawyer

Almost everyone has either tasted or smelled a food item that was a bit past its prime, but there are times when the spoiled or otherwise unsafe food’s contamination cannot be detected. In times such as these, many individuals develop serious symptoms of food poisoning and need immediate medical attention. If you have sustained personal injuries from unsafe food and feel the food seller is at fault, consult our experienced personal injury law firm: Gottesman & Hollis, P.A.

Food poisoning cases are extremely complicated and must be proven with science-based evidence. Expert witnesses from a variety of fields—medicine, agriculture, food safety, sanitation, microbiology, epidemiology—must be called in to testify and verify the claim. As the victim, you also have a three-fold burden of proof: fault, causation, and damages.

Fault  
You must show that the food processer or seller somehow contaminated the food during processing, preparation, storage, or handling.

Causation
If the seller or processer can be shown to have tampered with the food, you must now show that those actions caused serious contamination. This contamination needs to also show that the illness was a direct result of the processor or seller’s actions. Expert witnesses may be called to verify that your injuries were caused by the contaminated food rather than some other cause.

Damages
These are the physical harms and losses you suffered as a direct result of the food poisoning. We will fight for such damages as medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and wrongful death.

If you or a loved one has suffered from Botulism, Campylobacter, Clostridium, Cryptospordium, E. Coli, Hepatitis, or other diseases stemming from food poisoning, contact our food poisoning lawyers at Gottesman & Hollis, P.A.
