Claim deadline: June 30, 2026
Represents: Tyson Foods, Inc., Tyson Fresh Meats, Inc.

“Recovery” and “exposure” refer to total disclosed settlement funds in associated cases, not money personally won or lost by an attorney. Settlements generally resolve disputed allegations without a finding that either side won. Data comes from public court dockets and may be incomplete.
