Maple Leaf Foods Class Action

Charney Lawyers, together with another law firm, filed a national class action against Maple Leaf Foods to recover damages on behalf of consumers who purchased or ate Maple Leaf Food Products which were contaminated with listeria. Within six months, the class actions were settled for 27 million, considered to be the largest food contamination settlement in Canadian history. A number of arbitrations must be decided before the settlement funds can be distributed.
