Legislative Advocacy:
Demanding Justice for Families Impacted by Unsafe Products

A lawyer meets with a man and woman.

Protecting Premature Babies from Harmful Formula Manufacturers

Research has consistently linked Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) to certain cow milk-based infant formulas. A 1990 study found that NEC occurred 6-10 times more often in infants fed formula than those fed breast milk alone. More recently, in 2011, Johns Hopkins Medical Institution discovered that extremely premature babies fed human donor milk were significantly less likely to develop NEC than those fed standard cow’s milk-based premature infant formulas.

You trusted leading formula manufacturers to provide safe nutrition for your newborn, but now you’re facing the devastating consequences of their negligence. These companies knew the risks but failed to adequately warn parents or offer safer alternatives. It’s time to hold them accountable for the harm they’ve caused. We must demand safer, more reliable products for premature and vulnerable infants. Together, we can fight for the justice your family deserves, raise awareness, and advocate for stronger protections for future generations.

Legal Assistance for Families Affected by NEC:

Facing powerful formula manufacturers can feel overwhelming, but families affected by Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) deserve justice for what they have been through. Research shows that formula feeding, especially in premature infants, increases the risk of NEC. By holding these companies accountable for putting their unsafe products out, you can secure compensation for medical costs and emotional trauma. With the proper legal support, you can fight back and make a difference for your family and future generations.
