She is in Florida. I don't know more details at the moment.
It would be best to consult with a Florida attorney. But your post remains open for a week. Unless there is more information involving medical response and treatment, there does not appear to be a significant level of damages. It could be difficult to base case on the distress of finding a bug in fruit. If you have more information regarding damages that can be substantiated, that would be helpful. You could contact an attorney in Florida to discuss further and ask their opinion.

Paid doctor to perform surgery to correct tough tie. (Cut strip of skin connecting tough to bottom of mouth).
Returned on follow up visit after week of pain and suffering. Doctor admitted he made a mistake and only cut 1/3 of the skin. Agreed to redo the procedure for free, but his portion of the total cost of the procedure was only about 25% meaning I would have to pay for the 2nd time 75% of what I paid the first time, plus take off a 2nd week of work for pain and suffering.
Is it legal to use photos that include company logos or trademarked items in a book or ebook?
I have a book called "Eat This Not That" that contains all sorts of photos of supermarket items and says to eat or not eat them. The only disclaimer is a blurb in the beginning that the inclusion of trademarks does not constitute an endorsement for or from the manufacturers.
Does this mean that this sort of thing is legal, say under fair use laws? I can't imagine that Haagen Dazs gave their permission to put a photo of their product on the cover as something not to eat. I have instructional ebooks to sell that have some pictures of signs and such but are nowhere near as blatant as this book. Could someone tell me how this is done legally? I would greatly appreciate any help.
