Law Firm Getting Many Submissions For Pet Food
Class Action News
[##_1L|1363235407.jpg|width="140" height="102" alt=""|_##]A Madison law firm that filed a class-action lawsuit in the wake of a massive recall over contaminated pet food said it has been getting many submissions. Progressive Law Group, LLC, filed a class-action lawsuit earlier this week. The firm said that it's getting 20 to 30 submissions on their Web site every hour and that they are now working with attorneys across the country in the handling of the case.
"The stories are so tragic our staff numbers are sorting out the information and they actually broke into tears," said Frank Jablonski, an attorney with Progressive Law Group, LLC. "This is an enormous mess-up by these companies and the amount of tragedies by these companies is huge and terrible."
Meanwhile, the company at the center of the recall is speaking out for the first time since the recall.
"Our hearts go out to the thousands of pet owners across Canada and the United States for their losses and their worries," said Paul Henderson, president and CEO of Menu Foods.
The company said it is grateful that investigators have finally pinpointed a cause. Investigators said that rat poison contaminated the pet food.
The manufacturer said it will take responsibility for veterinary costs linked to the tainted food.
As of Friday, the contaminated pet food has been blamed for at least 17 animal deaths. That number represents the confirmed cases, so the number of deaths could increase much more, WISC-TV reported.
Scientists said the Menu Foods brand of wet and gravy style food was contaminated by rat poison, but they don't know how the poison got into the food.
