Houston Salmonella Lawyers
In some cases, a little negligence on behalf of kitchen staff or food product manufacturers can cause a great deal of damage to consumers. Unclean surfaces and undercooked food presents a serious threat of exposure to disease-causing bacteria. In particular, Salmonella and E. coli are common problems that follow poor kitchen preparation and can lead to major health complications.
Becoming sick due to food poisoning is an unacceptable result of choosing to dine at a particular restaurant or buy from a particular grocer. Contact the Houston E. coli attorneys of Williams Kherkher at 832-369-8296 today.
Sources of Salmonella and E. Coli
According to the World Health Organization, typhoid fever, which is caused by a type of Salmonella, affects 16 million people worldwide. E. coli infections have been cited as the cause for almost 90 percent of all urinary tract infections in otherwise healthy individuals. Both of these bacteria are responsible for food poisoning, which can cause serious disruptions in the digestive system.
It is possible to contract these infections from the following sources:
- Contaminated vegetables
- Undercooked eggs or poultry
- Poorly thawed poultry
- Undercooked or raw beef
- Contaminated water
- Unpasteurized milk
These foods can lead to food poisoning, which can lead to further health problems. If you have become ill after eating contaminated food, our Houston Salmonella attorneys may be able to help.

If you have been injured because of a restaurant or grocer’s poor preparation of food products, you may be entitled to compensation. The contract between you and the seller dictates that their food will not physically harm you or make you sick, and that the process of making a dish will take proper preparation into account.
