Her lawyer, Jared Redavid, shared this statement on the incident:
“I am confident that when all the facts come to light we will sadly have revealed yet another instance where corporate quick-serve giants failed to do what’s reasonable to protect consumers. Burn injuries are often as preventable as they are life-altering. I am proud of my client who is brave enough to call upon our civil justice system to ferret out corporate negligence and demand accountability despite all she’s been and going through.”
