Similac recall lawsuits are being filed around the country after Abbott Laboratories announced a recall of all Similac, Alimentum, and EleCare powdered infant formula products manufactured at the company’s plant in Sturgis, Michigan. Similac PM 60/40 has now also been recalled after a baby exposed to this powdered baby formula died.
When the Similac recall was announced, our attorneys were under the impression there would be a handful of severe injury and wrongful death cases from this recall.
We were wrong. While 2024 has seen new cases mostly die out, our law firm received hundreds of calls, many of which are from parents whose children have suffered severe injury or death from food poisoning from Similac. It is an awful thing that happened, and it exacerbated a baby formula shortage that also caused a lot of pain. The government and Abbott are working now to make sure it never happens again. In the meantime, a large number of victims have viable claims for compensation.
