My daughter swallowed and choked on a plastic that was in a jar of Gerber baby food. What are my options as a consumer? Can I take them to court? Do I have a case against these people for not taking me seriously?
Contact a personal injury attorney and he or she can advise you. I presume there were no lasting effects of swallowing the plastic? If not the case still has some value and is worth pursuing.
You do not have a case because some one did not take you seriously. However, your child may have a case. Whether or not you have one depends on where you were when the child choked on the foreign matter. See an attorney.
Your best cause of action based on the facts presented is a product liability claim. Your damages would be any medical bills you incurred as a result of your daughter choking as well as other potential damages that may be assessed. I would recommend contacting an attorney to further discuss your options.
