NEC Infant Formula Litigation

Justice for Premature Infants Harmed by Toxic Formula

Titan Legal LLC represents families whose premature babies developed Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) after being fed cow's-milk-based baby formulas such as Similac (Abbott Laboratories) and Enfamil (Mead Johnson Nutrition).

Our firm stands with parents seeking answers and accountability for a tragedy that medical research shows could have been prevented had manufacturers issued proper warnings.

Who May Have a Claim

You may qualify to file an NEC formula lawsuit if:

✓Your child was born prematurely and fed Similac, Enfamil, or similar cow's-milk-based formulas;
✓Your child developed NEC or related intestinal injuries;
✓Surgery, long-term complications, or death resulted;
✓You were not warned by the hospital, manufacturer, or product labeling about NEC risks.

Important Note:

Parents pursuing claims may seek damages for medical expenses, long-term care, emotional distress, and loss of companionship.

What is NEC?

Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) is a severe gastrointestinal disease that destroys intestinal tissue, often leading to infection, sepsis, emergency surgery, or death in premature infants.

Peer-reviewed studies have long shown that preterm babies fed cow's-milk formulas face a dramatically higher risk of NEC compared to those fed human milk or fortified breast milk.

Despite these findings, formula manufacturers aggressively marketed their products for use in neonatal intensive-care units (NICUs) without adequate warnings to doctors or parents.

The Evidence Against Formula Manufacturers

Medical literature dating back decades documents the link between cow's-milk-based formulas and intestinal damage in preterm infants. Internal and external investigations allege that Abbott and Mead Johnson:

Knowledge of Risk

Knew or should have known of NEC risks associated with their cow's-milk-based formulas for premature infants.

Failure to Warn

Failed to include proper warnings on product labels about the risks of NEC in premature babies.

Deceptive Marketing

Continued marketing their formulas as safe for premature infants despite known risks.

Profits Over Safety

Prioritized profits over infant safety and parental informed consent.

Current Litigation Status:

Hundreds of cases are now consolidated in federal multidistrict litigation (MDL No. 3026) in the Northern District of Illinois, as well as in multiple state courts nationwide.
