Why are parents filing lawsuits over heavy metals in baby foods?

At Baum Hedlund Aristei & Goldman, we strongly believe that the toxic baby food litigation can be a primary force in effecting change, ensuring better public policy, and improving public health. We’ve seen this with tobacco. We’ve seen this with pesticides. And now, unfortunately, we’re seeing it with baby foods, which affects the most vulnerable segment of our population.

With this litigation, parents can act when the FDA has failed to do so and ensure that future generations are protected from the dangers of heavy metals in baby foods.
