Our food safety lawyers are investigating the Listeria outbreak linked to El Abuelito cheeses for a possible lawsuit and we are asking the public for help. We need to find out when people purchased the cheese and when it made them or a family member sick. (en español)
Please contact our legal investigation team today
If you or a family member was sickened with Listeriosis (the disease caused by the Listeria bacteria) after eating cheese made by El Abuelito, please contact our legal team today. Time is critically important when investigating Listeria cases.
We may be able to help you get compensation
Our Listeria lawsuit team is currently collecting information and signing up clients for a possible lawsuit against the wrongdoers that have hospitalized at least 10 people and lead to the death of at least one. Listeria can affect anyone, but it often very seriously sickens older people as well as pregnant mothers and their babies.
