I receive a letter from Timothy Potter Mc'Donalds Franchise Owner pretty much apologizing and offer two certificates of free value meals
A:
If your son didn't need medical treatment chances are there is no case because you have to show the worm being there caused damage. Being revolting isn't enough to the law.
Contact a member of the NYState Trial Laweyrs Assn in your area--they give free consults.
A:
You could consult with attorneys to learn if they feel the case is viable to pursue. One of the factors in such cases is the element of damages. An attorney could ask you about documentation, such as doctor’s treatment or other things, that evidence damages.
