Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Lawyer in Nashville

Were You Injured Because of a Failure to Detect a Leak?

Carbon monoxide, or CO, is an odorless and colorless gas that can poison and even kill people who inhale too much of it. It is produced any time fuel is burned, including fuel found in furnaces, gas ranges, fireplaces, grills, lanterns, stoves, engines, and more. Many facilities, including hotels, hospitals, restaurants, etc. need to take extra care to ensure that visitors remain safe throughout their stay. However, far too many of these locations fail to properly install or maintain carbon monoxide detectors, putting the health and safety of everyone at risk.

What Makes Carbon Monoxide Leaks So Dangerous?

When too much carbon monoxide fills the air, people who breathe it in can suffer diminished oxygen supply to body tissues which desperately need that oxygen. Carbon monoxide can harm or kill people who are perfectly healthy. It can be especially dangerous for people who are intoxicated or sleeping because it can take a while to fully recognize the symptoms and take action to protect yourself.

The warning signs of carbon monoxide poisoning include:

• Unconsciousness
• Blurred vision
• Confusion
• Shortness of breath
• Vomiting
• Nausea
• Dizziness
• Weakness
• Dull headache
