Independent testing has found lead and other heavy metals in some protein powders, greens powders, prenatal vitamins and herbal products. If you or your child used one of these products and later had health problems or abnormal test results, a New York attorney can review your situation for free.
This page is not medical advice. If you have symptoms, talk to your doctor. If you think someone has been poisoned, call Poison Control at 1-800-222-1222. In an emergency, call 911.
We are lawyers, not doctors. We can't tell you whether a product caused your symptoms — only a medical professional can evaluate that.
A blood test showed elevated lead or other heavy metals, and you'd been taking a supplement regularly.
Health problems began or worsened while you were using a product that has since been flagged by independent testing.
A product was used during pregnancy or while breastfeeding, or a child consumed it.
Where a contaminated product caused real harm, New York law may allow claims for strict products liability, negligence and breach of warranty. These claims depend on medical evidence connecting the product to the injury.
New York's consumer protection statutes (GBL §§ 349–350) can apply when a label was false or misleading, whether or not you got sick. Learn about your rights.
Keep any remaining product and its packaging. Don't throw it away.
Receipts, order history, or subscription records showing what you bought and when.
Test results, diagnoses, and the names of the doctors you've seen.
Injury cases are harder than label cases. Proving that a specific product caused a specific health problem usually takes medical records and expert testimony, and not every case can meet that standard.
We'll review what you send us and tell you plainly whether we think there's a claim worth pursuing — and if there isn't, we'll say so. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.
