In Queensland, visiting a restaurant or cafe and dining out is popular. With everyone leading busy lives, getting a quick takeaway or going to a restaurant is convenient and requires far less effort than making food at home. The average amount spent on restaurants and takeout food in Queensland is $230 a month. Every time you eat food from a venue outside your home, you trust the vendor is following food safety guidelines. This is not always the case.
Each year in Australia, there are about 5.4 million cases of food-related gastro and 80 fatalities. Most of these food illness cases will result in mild nausea and vomiting, which end in 24 to 48 hours, but others can be more serious with long-term effects on your life.

When you need informed legal advice for food poisoning compensation, it’s good to know help is close by. Our skilled public liability solicitors are based in eight locations across Southeast Queensland. It is likely we have a lawyer near you now. Choose your location:
For your solicitor to succeed in a food compensation claim, they must show that the entity or person who caused your illness was at fault. That when the incident occurred, they failed their duty of care. And that due to this failure, you experienced suffering and loss. Your lawyer will explain more about how this works when they review your circumstances for free.
When your claim succeeds, the insurance company of the person or entity who caused your loss is usually liable to fund your compensation. Most businesses in Queensland have public liability insurance to protect them financially when they fail their duty of care.
In Queensland, there are time limits for bringing a compensation claim in food poisoning cases. Failure to lodge within this period may prevent you from ever receiving a settlement. If you believe you have a case, you should begin immediately.
The time it takes for a compensation matter to settle varies because every case is unique. The severity of your symptoms, how you acquire food poisoning, and the complexity or simplicity of your claim all factor into the time it takes to complete. Our public liability legal team will give you a time frame when they do your free case evaluation.

When restaurants, cafes, fast food providers or other food vendors fail to comply with health codes, you can sue for food poisoning damages. However, success generally relies on a thorough understanding of public liability law concerning foodborne illnesses. Additionally, you must have compelling evidence to prove who is to blame for your loss. This is a situation where our personal injury lawyers can help.
Regarding foodborne illnesses, a stomach bug usually develops over a 24- to 48-hour period before causing symptoms. On the other hand, food poisoning generally presents symptoms, often about two to six hours after you’ve eaten contaminated food.
