The Food Poisoning Lawyers at Ron Simon & Associates are headquartered in Houston, Texas, and while they represent victims across the nation, including many in California, Missouri, Arizona, Florida, New Mexico, and many other states, they often take the lead in food borne illness cases in Texas – as in the outbreaks linked to local restaurants such as the Iguana Joe’s Father’s Day Salmonella Outbreak and the Fuego Tortilla Grill College Station Salmonella Outbreak. Restaurant outbreaks like these are often localized events with a limited geographical reach in terms of the victims all residing in a single or a few contiguous counties within a single state. The food poisoning lawyers at Ron Simon & Associates also represent people in these localized outbreaks in other parts of the countries, such as in the New Jersey Colonial Diner salmonella outbreak, the Maryland Mount Everest Graduation Party Salmonella Outbreak, and in the recent Las Vegas Firefly Salmonella outbreak.
But another side of food poisoning outbreaks that warrant the skills of an experienced Listeria Lawyer in Texas are product-related outbreaks. These are often much more wide-spread, and can have victims across counties, states, and even nations. This is the case in the Listeria outbreak linked to caramel covered apples that is currently claiming victims in 11 states and Canada. So far, here in Texas, there at least four confirmed cases, and likely many more, where victims ate a caramel covered apple from tan manufacturer who got their apples from Bidart Brothers, the apple supplier whose Gala and/or Granny Smith apples and have been positively confirmed to carry the Listeria that has been linked to victims in his outbreak.
As national Listeria Lawyers in Texas, the food poisoning lawyers at Ron Simon & Associates are working with victims in this outbreak from California to Florida, and in fact filed a lawsuit this week on behalf of a former military member who was hospitalized for a month after ingesting the Listeria infected caramel apples sold at Wal-Mart and made by Happy Apples. The apples were widely dispersed, including in Dallas County, where at least one person was treated 9whough reportedly no a Dallas County resident). The victims in Texas seem to reflect a pattern affecting Arizona, New Mexico and Texas residents, evincing a high regional occurrence rate – in fact, the highest regional occurrence rate in this 32-confirmed case Listeria outbreak is the concentration in these three states.
If you are a Texan, or for that matter, live in any state, feel free to call and talk to the Listeria Lawyers at Ron Simon a& Associates about potential legal rights you and your loved ones may have.
