I ate at a restaurant last night, and I’ve been really sick. Turns out a few other people got food poisoning too. Do I have a case against them?

Ugh, sounds horrible! It's possible, but whether you can claim depends on a few things:

  • Proof it was them: Did you see anything dodgy at the restaurant – poor hygiene, undercooked food? Can others who got sick back you up?
  • Medical evidence: Getting a formal diagnosis of food poisoning is crucial. Your doctor can test to see what germ caused it.
  • Did they break the rules? Proving the restaurant was negligent is vital. They have a duty of care to serve safe food.
  • It's not just the upset tummy: Compensation could cover medical costs, lost wages if you missed work, and the general misery of it all.

How "it happens" can help:

  • Getting to the bottom of it: We can help investigate what might have caused you to get ill.
  • Building your claim: We work with food safety experts and have experience in cases like yours.
  • No win, no fee peace of mind: You won't pay a penny unless your claim is successful.
