Wolfgang Puck is essentially an institution in the country due to his celebrity and entrepreneurial spirit, which has spawned over 50 restaurants across the country. From Las Vegas to New York to Beverly Hills, this powerhouse has left an indelible mark on the culinary scene, where thousands of Americans visit these eateries on their way to different destinations at airports, as well as their chosen cities in major hotels.

It is estimated that the brand generates over $400 million annually, and it operates via a sophisticated web of licensing agreements, corporate entities, and insurance programs that are architected to protect the empire from any and all forms of litigation from other businesses as well as individuals.

Celebrity culture has meant that these individuals have been seen as faultless gods in the country, and therefore, nothing negative can be expected when dining at a Wolfgang Puck restaurant. We expect that the food will be prepared to the highest standard, that it will be safe, and that every plate served will provide an experience unlike any other, regardless of the 300-dollar price tag.

However, in the real world, it is exactly these establishments where you would expect to suffer E. coli food poisoning leading to permanent kidney damage, a slip and fall that ends in you being paralyzed from the waist down, and even an unprovoked attack due to negligent security. When this happens, you will most likely receive a disingenuous apology from corporate communications and their attorneys, and they will begin a game of pass the buck, stating that it was the suppliers, catering subcontractors, or franchisees themselves who are to blame for your injuries.

In such an event, the insurance company circling the wagon can become exhaustive and add to the stress and PTSD of your injuries. If a Wolfgang Puck-branded restaurant was the location where the food contamination or fall occurred, it is the corporation whose name is on the door that must be held liable, and not some nebulous supplier or contractor. If you or a loved one suffered food poisoning, wrongful death, traumatic brain injury, assault, and so on while dining at a Wolfgang Puck restaurant, read on to find out how we can help you recover compensation and justice during this difficult time.

How Foodborne Illnesses Occur at Celebrity-Branded Restaurants

Here are some of the ways in which foodborne illnesses occur at Wolfgang Puck-branded restaurants:

1. Cross-contamination due to not following protocol, especially things like raw meat juices coming into contact with other foods, such as salads, via shared knives, cutting boards, or counter spaces. By working in high-pressure environments where the need to serve hundreds of customers fast, some chefs may cut corners and forego cleanup at your expense
2. Temperature abuse, whereby foods meant to be refrigerated are left on the counter to thaw, such as raw chicken, leading to the multiplication of dangerous bacteria
3. Having workers carry out their duties while ill may lead to the contamination of dozens of dishes with hepatitis A, norovirus, or stomach bug, something that may point to understaffing of the kitchens in order to increase the bottom line

Who’ll Pay for Your Injuries at a Wolfgang Puck Restaurant?

If you suffer a foodborne illness or an injury at a Wolfgang Puck restaurant, various parties may be liable for your injuries. For starters, the operating entity may be liable as it operates the restaurant and via a specific negligent act, allowed the injury or illness to happen. Wolfgang Puck Worldwide Inc. may also be held liable as it sets the standards for operations and draws a profit for every meal served. In addition, the hotel or casino owner that hosts the Wolfgang Puck restaurant may also have to answer to legal demands as it shares liability for conditions within its facility.
