Confirm the source and symptoms before you consult
The intake asks whether symptoms began within days of eating out, whether medical care was sought, and whether the source business or product can be named—while collecting receipts, medical records, and lab results up front.

The questions your team needs answered
Every food poisoning intake asks these — and why each one matters.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Did you get sick after eating or drinking something from a restaurant, store-bought product, catered event, or another business? | Confirms a business or product caused the illness, which is required before there's a defendant to pursue. |
| Did your symptoms start within 7 days after you ate or drank that item? | A 7-day onset window ties the timing of symptoms to the specific meal, supporting causation. |
| Did you seek medical care (doctor, urgent care, ER) or get lab testing because of the illness? | Medical care or lab testing is often the strongest available evidence linking the illness to a specific pathogen. |
| Did you have significant symptoms like severe vomiting/diarrhea, dehydration, high fever, blood in stool, or were you hospitalized? | Severity thresholds like hospitalization or blood in stool separate a viable injury claim from a self-limiting illness. |
| Do you have medical bills, missed work, or other out-of-pocket costs because of this illness? | Documented medical bills and lost wages quantify damages, which drives the potential value of the claim. |
| Can you identify where you got the food or drink (business name, location, brand, or event) and roughly when you consumed it? | Naming the restaurant, product, or event and roughly when it happened is necessary to identify a specific defendant. |
| Did anyone else who ate the same food or drink also get sick? | Other sick eaters corroborate the source and weaken alternative-cause defenses. |
| Did this happen within the last 2 years? | Confirms the incident falls within a relevant filing window before the firm invests time in the matter. |

Common food poisoning lead scenarios
Restaurant outbreak, multiple people sick
Caller names the restaurant, ate there within the last week, and knows coworkers who also got sick—the intake surfaces the corroborating cases and named source together.
Hospitalized with severe symptoms
Severe dehydration or blood in stool led to an ER visit, lab testing, and missed work—these combine into a high-value, high-urgency signal the intake flags immediately.
Mild illness, never saw a doctor
Symptoms passed in a day or two with no medical visit, no lab confirmation, and no documented costs—the intake still records it but scores it well below a documented case.
Home-cooked meal, no business involved
The illness came from food prepared at home rather than a restaurant, store, or caterer—the intake screens this out early since there's no business to hold liable.
Old incident outside the claim window
Caller describes an illness from more than two years ago—the intake catches the timing before the firm spends time on a case that may be time-barred.

Food Poisoning lead-intake FAQs
Why does the intake ask whether this happened in the last 2 years?
Food poisoning claims are subject to limitations periods, so the intake flags anything outside a typical window rather than letting it reach the calendar as if it were fully viable.
What if the caller isn't sure exactly where they got sick?
The intake still records the illness and timing, but a claim without an identified restaurant, product, or event scores lower since there's no clear business to pursue.
Does the intake require medical documentation?
It asks whether the caller sought care or lab testing and lets them attach medical records or test results, since documented, lab-confirmed illness is far stronger than a self-reported one.
How does the intake handle a case where no one else got sick?
The catalog treats other affected eaters as a supporting signal, not a requirement—a single documented, source-identified case can still score as a strong lead.
What if symptoms were mild and the caller never went to a doctor?
The intake captures the answer honestly and weights it lower than a case involving severe symptoms, hospitalization, or lab-confirmed testing, so mild cases don't get treated the same as documented ones.
Can the intake screen out illnesses that weren't caused by a business?
Yes—if the caller didn't get sick from a restaurant, store-bought product, caterer, or another business, that answer alone lowers the score since there's no commercial party to hold responsible.
