If what you thought was a delicious meal has betrayed you, the aftermath could make you question if the food was really worth it at all. Food poisoning, such as cryptosporidium, can cause you significant discomfort for days and can even lead to an expensive hospital bill in more severe cases. This is unfair to you, and you deserve compensation for the hardship you’ve endured.
Grocery stores, restaurants, and other food services are required by law to provide sanitary food items to their customers. Their failure to uphold safety standards is unacceptable, and our attorneys want to assist you in pursuing the compensation you need to get back on your feet. If you believe your food poisoning was caused by negligence, contact Morgan & Morgan today for more information.

What is Cryptosporidium?
Cryptosporidium, a type of parasite found in uncooked or tainted food, causes an infection in the body that can take days to recover from. If you notice any of the following symptoms, you’re likely suffering from a cryptosporidia infection:
- Diarrhea
- Abdominal pain
- Fatigue
- Fever
- Nausea
- Loss of appetite
The symptoms of this food poisoning generally appear a week after the initial ingestion. Severe cases can cause extreme dehydration and weight loss, and if you find yourself in this situation, you should seek medical care immediately.
