Food Poisoning
If you suffer from food poisoning due to eating at a restaurant or other food outlet, you can make a claim for personal injury compensation – and our legal experts can help.
In severe cases, food poisoning means having to take more than just a couple of days off work and there can be implications for lost earnings. In the most extreme situations, food poisoning can cause damage to the nervous system and even death.
Common symptoms of food poisoning include:
- Diarrhoea
- Vomiting
- Fever
- Dehydration
- Stomach pains
Food poisoning is usually due to poor standards of hygiene when food is prepared and two bacteria – e-coli and salmonella – are the most frequent causes. Food poisoning is also caused by other bacteria such as clostridium, botulinum, and campylobacter.
