If you or someone close to you has been affected by food poisoning or serious medication side effects, the consequences can be dramatic. As well as damaging your health, it can turn your whole life upside down. In such situations, it is crucial to assert your rights and seek compensation for the harm you have endured.
Maître Pierre DEBUISSON, a health and criminal lawyer in Toulouse, offers his skills and experience to victims of food and drug poisoning in Toulouse and Toulouse.
Every year in France, thousands of people fall victim to food poisoning. Behind these figures lie human tragedies, such as the case of Buitoni pizzas contaminated with E. Coli bacteria, which cost the lives of two children in 2022. The causes of these poisonings are often linked to serious failings on the part of professionals in the food industry: failure to comply with hygiene standards, poor controls, negligence, etc.
As a consumer, you have a fundamental right to food safety. When this right is flouted, those at fault can be held liable under both civil and criminal law. Maître DEBUISSON can help you through these complex procedures to ensure that the damage suffered is recognised and to obtain fair compensation.
Medicines that are supposed to treat you can sometimes prove more dangerous than the disease itself. In France, adverse drug reactions are responsible for over 100,000 hospital admissions every year. These can include cardiovascular problems, kidney damage and severe allergic reactions. The consequences can be dramatic for the patients and their families.
Although pharmaceutical companies are obliged to provide information on the risks associated with their products, this information is often incomplete or misleading. For example, the Levothyrox affair in 2016 highlighted the serious side effects (such as dizziness, headaches and hair loss) suffered by many patients following a change to the formula of this thyroid medication, for which they received insufficient information.
Fortunately, resources are available to help victims assert their rights in the face of this prejudice. Alongside patients' associations, Maître DEBUISSON, a personal injury attorney based in Paris and Toulouse, is fighting to ensure that health takes precedence over the financial interests of major pharmaceutical companies. As a result, his firm can assist you with all aspects of your case, from preparation to representation at trial.
With offices in Paris and Toulouse, Maître DEBUISSON's firm provides local legal support wherever you are in France. Thanks to his recognised experience in health, criminal and business law, he can provide you with a team of lawyers and legal experts who are experienced in the most complex consumer and medical litigation cases. Every case is rigorously studied and dealt with diligently, in accordance with the ethics of the legal profession.

Recognising this essential human dimension, Maître DEBUISSON prioritises building strong relationships with his clients. Availability, empathy and clarity of communication are at the heart of his commitment to his clients. Together, you will confront the ordeal you have been through and obtain the compensation to which you are entitled.
