CHICAGO, July 18, 2019 /PRNewswire/ --The national food safety law firm of Ron Simon & Associates filed a series of lawsuits last year against Kellogg's immediately after the FDA and CDC announced their finding that Honey Smacks Cereal was the source of a national Salmonella outbreak. On September 27, the CDC announced it had confirmed 135 cases of salmonellosis in 36 states, in victims ranging from 1 to 95 years old.

One year later, Ron Simon is working hard to collect compensation for numerous victims, as well as the claims of those who have only recently contacted the law firm.

It Is Not Too Late To File a Kellogg's Salmonella Claim

There is still time to file a claim for most of the victims in the affected 36 states. Ron Simon encourages victims to do so sooner rather than later as it is always preferable to do so when the evidence is more recent and to make sure they do not wait until after the applicable statute of limitations has run – in many states between one and three years.

The victims of the Kellogg Honey Smack Cereal outbreak suffered from symptoms including vomiting, abdominal cramping, and diarrhea. For those with a confirmed case of Salmonella, the victims were called by the local health department who interviewed them about the foods they had eaten as a part of the investigation into the source of the salmonellosis. Victims with confirmed cases are strongly encouraged to seek legal representation.

Mr. Simon and his law firm have established a Kellogg's Salmonella Claim Center to assist victims in the outbreak. The Kellogg's Salmonella Claim can be reached toll-free at 1-888-335-4901 or online at http://www.kelloggslawsuit.com/.
