On June 24, 2009 JBS Swift Beef Company in association with the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced a nationwide recall of 41,280 pounds of beef products because they may be contaminated with E. coli O157:H7.

E. coli O157:H7 is a potentially deadly bacterium that can cause bloody diarrhea, dehydration, and in the most severe cases, kidney failure. The very young, seniors and persons with weak immune systems are the most susceptible to foodborne illness. Individuals concerned about an illness should contact a physician.

If you or somebody you know has been sickened with E. coli O157:H7 by any of the beef products listed on the recall list below, you should contact us immediately.  You may be entitled to compensation for your injuries and the food poisoning attorneys and lawyers at our law firm can help.
