Each year, millions of Americans become sick due to eating tainted food. While most food borne illness victims recover within a few days, some victims are more seriously affected. In the most tragic of cases, death occurs as the result of eating contaminated foods.
The most perilous types of food borne diseases include:
- E.coli
- Salmonella
- Hepatitis A
- Shigella
- Listeria
As food production has become increasingly global and large in scale, food borne illness has become a real threat to society. Whether it is E.coli or Salmonella in tainted meat, fruits, vegetables, ice cream, or other foods, listeria in cantaloupe, or the human strain of mad cow disease, the public needs to be protected from harm.
Compassionate Representation For Victims
At Bishop Legal, we are compassionate, yet forceful and aggressive food borne illness attorneys for our clients. We pursue the maximum possible compensation for the injuries and damages sustained as the result of food contamination. We hold the wrongdoers accountable, which not only benefits our clients but the public at large.
While the government plays a role in providing rules and regulations in food production and food services these rules are not always followed or not sufficient to protect the public. At Bishop Legal, we help ensure that liable parties are held responsible for their negligence.

- Dehydration
- Diarrhea
