Jimmy Johns Sprouts Recall and E. coli Lawsuit: Free Consultation with Attorney
Our law firm has been contacted by victims of the Jimmy Johns sprouts E. coli O26 outbreak, which has grown to 25 confirmed cases. Fred Pritzker, lead attorney for our E. coli cases, is heading up our investigation of this outbreak.

People from 8 states have confirmed cases of E. coli O26: Alabama (1), Iowa (5), Missouri (3), Kansas (2), Michigan (9), Arkansas (1), Ohio (3), and Wisconsin (1). Six of the E. coli victims have been hospitalized.
Results of the epidemiologic and traceback investigations indicate eating raw clover sprouts at Jimmy John’s restaurants is the likely cause of this outbreak, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Of the 24 ill persons with available information, 21 (87%) reported consuming sprouts at Jimmy John’s restaurants in the 7 days preceding illness.
Illness onset dates ranged from December 25, 2011 to February 15, 2012. Illnesses that occurred after February 19, 2012, might not be reported yet due to the time it takes between when a person becomes ill and when the illness is reported.
Neither Jimmy Johns nor any of its raw sprouts suppliers initiated a sprouts recall. Part of our Jimmy Johns lawsuit investigation will involve determining when Jimmy Johns first knew about the illnesses.
