Baby Formula NEC Lawsuits

Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), also referred to as "the silent killer" of babies, is a devastating disease that affects the intestines. NEC is a serious gastrointestinal disease that causes intestinal tissue death and can be fatal in around 50% of cases. Many parents are filing baby formula lawsuits against manufacturers like Similac and Enfamil. The lawsuits are a result of several studies that have recently proven the connection of baby formulas with NEC. Since NEC is a severe condition, the medical expenses can be huge. Moreover, it can also cause a lot of mental damage to the parents. Therefore, parents whose infants suffered from any such issues are filing a lawsuit. They claim compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, loss of consortium, etc.
