Were You Exposed to Carbon Monoxide?
The attorneys at Morgan & Morgan are actively investigating lawsuits on behalf of individuals who have been injured as a result of carbon monoxide poisoning.
Exposure to carbon monoxide can result in serious side effects, and for some patients, these injuries may be permanent. When carbon monoxide poisoning is caused by the negligence of another individual or entity — such as a building owner, employer, or product manufacturer — our attorneys may be able to hold these parties legally responsible for medical bills and other damages resulting from the exposure.
Are you experiencing unexplained symptoms you believe stem from carbon monoxide exposure? If so, our attorneys would like to hear from you. If your injuries are being caused by carbon monoxide poisoning, we can help determine whether you can file a personal injury lawsuit to recover compensation for your suffering.

How Was I Exposed to Carbon Monoxide?
Individuals can be exposed to carbon monoxide anywhere a combustion engine is found since these types of engines use gas, oil, kerosene and charcoal as fuel – all of which produce carbon monoxide when they are burned. Although combustion engines typically produce small amounts of carbon monoxide, if combustion (oxidation) of the gas is incomplete, or there is a leak in the system, dangerous levels of the gas can be released.
Combustion engines are used in the following appliances:
- Vehicles
- Boats
- Generators
- Room heaters
- Hot water heaters
- Furnaces
- Charcoal grills
- Cooking ranges
- Fireplaces
- Wood-burning stoves
- Boilers
Since these engines are often used to power common household appliances, individuals may be exposed to the gas in their homes, workplaces, and at hotels.
Many cases of carbon monoxide poisoning go undiagnosed. Often, doctors struggle in diagnosing carbon monoxide poisoning, as they are trying to identify a cause of brain damage in patients who have not fallen, been in a car accident, or experienced any other traumatic event. The early symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning may also mimic those of the flu, and contrary to popular belief, exposure to the gas does not always cause a loss of consciousness. Patients who are suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning may experience confusion, speech and eyesight problems, and nausea, among other symptoms. Unfortunately, for some victims, their symptoms will not always resolve when they are removed from carbon monoxide exposure and they may be left with permanent neurological side effects.
