NEC Baby Formula Attorneys

Did Your Baby Suffer from NEC After Drinking Baby Formula?

Has your child received a diagnosis of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) after consuming baby formula products made by Enfamil and Similac? The NEC might have been caused directly by consuming baby formula that has since been deemed unsafe for babies who were born prematurely.

Grewal Law PLLC is currently investigating the connection between cow milk-based baby formula and NEC, as well as legal action that has already been formed against Enfamil and Similac for selling unsafe products. If your child was born prematurely, drank cow milk-based baby formula, and suffered from NEC, we want to hear your story as soon as possible. With us leading the way, you can explore your legal options to pursue justice and compensation for your family.

What is NEC?

NEC is a severe gastrointestinal disease that is particularly dangerous to premature infants (born before 37 weeks). The underdeveloped digestive tract and weakened immune system make the infant susceptible to bacterial growth in the intestines, especially after eating contaminated food. If untreated, the bacterial growth can damage the intestines and result in small holes throughout them, which causes undigested food and digestive fluids to leak into the abdomen. This symptom of NEC may prove fatal; the disease has an approximate 25% mortality rate and a 50% incident rate of permanent disabilities.

Infants diagnosed with NEC may suffer from:

• Liver failure
• Slowed physical and mental development
• Malnutrition
• Metabolic bone disease
• Short bowel syndrome
• Sepsis (blood infection)
• Brain damage
