The list of Illinois residents that the attorneys at Marler Clark have represented in an E. coli outbreak is growing by the day.  The Los Burritos Mexicanos E. coli outbreak, which has sickened at least 17 people (9 confirmed), is only one in a string of E. coli outbreaks to hit Illinois in the last decade.  In fact, a Mexican restaurant E. coli outbreak in 2007, in which we represented a young boy who developed HUS (hemolytic uremic syndrome) resulted in a successful jury verdict that compensated the boy for his medical expenses, pain and suffering, and future risk of developing kidney complications.

Here is a list of the many E. coli outbreaks past that we have litigated, involving Illinois residents:

• Schnucks E. coli outbreak linked to romaine lettuce
• Rocky Mountain Natural Meats bison E. coli outbreak
• Nestle cookie dough E. coli outbreak
• American Foods Group ground beef E. coli outbreak
• El Rancherito Mexican Restaurant E. coli outbreak
• Dole Baby Spinach E. coli outbreak
• Habaneros Mexican restaurant E. coli outbreak
