Many of us want to shop in ways that align with our values. Big food corporations know this and put a lot of resource into misleading shoppers. See what information we unearthed in our lawsuit against Hormel Foods for falsely advertising their “Natural Choice” product line.

Supporting Farmers & Rural Communities

Rural communities need fair markets to thrive. But Big Ag uses their power to control markets, pollute family farms, and steal land and labor from rural communities, forcing local farmers and ranchers out of business.

Represented by FarmSTAND, Legal Aid of Nebraska, and Radford Scott LLP, these three Guatemalan men are suing Livingston Enterprises and Worldwide Farmers Exchange, the company that deceptively recruited them.

Workers’ Compensation for Michigan’s Undocumented Workers

Everyone should be able to work in conditions that are dignified, fair, and healthy, and getting injured at work should never mean losing your income or ability to take care of your family.
