Orange Park, FL asked in Personal Injury, Health Care Law and Small Claims for Florida

Q: I just swallowed a piece of plastic that was on my sandwich from Wendy’s, what can I do about that?

I showed the manager the plastic and she knew exactly where it came from.

1 Lawyer Answer

A: OK so I have had several cases like this. If you see blood in your stool or if you pass blood, don’t be alarmed, because this usually goes away after a while with a very sharp object like glass or sharp plastic is adjusted. If you do pass blood, make sure you take a picture of it so that you can prove damages if and when you file a claim. If you do experience any stomach discomfort or any abdominal pain, and go to seek emergency medical attention right away. And of course if you do Suffer from this accident, you should retain counsel here in Florida for contingency fee representation, which means you don’t pay anything unless you win. Please excuse any typographical errors, I am dictating this into a microphone device thank you
