Our New York Ultra-Processed Food (UPF) lawyers file obesity lawsuits for children and young adults with diabetes or other nutrition-related illness. New York UPF lawsuits claim food manufacturers failed to warn consumers of the risk of disease.

As such, New Yorkers diagnosed with a UPF-related medical condition may be eligible to claim a cash settlement.

New York Ultra-Processed Food Lawyers Advocate for Diabetes Victims

Our team of New York ultra-processed food attorneys have represented thousands of victims of dangerous consumer products. In doing so, we have recovered millions of dollars in settlement funds on their behalf.

However, we only pursue compensation from UPF producers, and do not file claims against our clients’ doctors or caregivers.

No Legal Fee Unless You Obtain a Settlement

While compensation may be available to qualified UPF claimants, victims are urged to act promptly. The #1 claim New York ultra-processed food victims can make for diabetes compensation is one filed within the Statute of Limitations. (Follow this link for our latest information on the UPF multi-district litigation.)

Our ultra-processed food lawyers are available to review claims now. We offer a free case evaluation to confirm childhood consumption of UPF and diagnosis of a related health condition. Further, we never charge a legal fee unless a financial recovery is obtained for our client.

New York State Diabetes Claims

New York ultra-processed food lawyers can also file diabetes lawsuits in the State’s county courts (NY Courts website). Civil Practice Law and Rules, found in New York Consolidated Laws, set forth the State’s procedural law for bodily injury claims.

The State of New York follows a pure comparative negligence rule. Accordingly, a New York diabetes lawyer can recover damages for wrongful conduct by ultra-processed food manufacturers regardless of what portion of fault may be assigned to the plaintiff. However, the diabetes victim’s recovery is reduced by their own degree of fault (if any).

Follow this link for a warning about faulty activity associated with ultra-processed food introduced in the New York State Senate.
