Carbon Monoxide poisoning

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas which causes hundreds of deaths and injuries in the UK each year. Many of these cases remain unexamined and undiagnosed until it is too late.

Even some medical professionals are not always aware of the symptoms and likelihood of Carbon Monoxide poisoning. We have dealt with cases where injured people have been diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome or multiple sclerosis and discharged from hospital only to be further poisoned at home.

We have acted for many people who have felt ill for months or even years and have not known why. Their condition may have deteriorated to the extent that they have neurological problems affecting their everyday lives.

Specialist lawyers with experience of Carbon Monoxide poisoning claims

Many solicitors do not appreciate the level of injury that can occur from even short periods of severe exposure to carbon monoxide. We believe that some of those who have been poisoned do not receive adequate compensation and that these cases must be dealt with by specialist solicitors, experienced in carbon monoxide claims. 

Our team of solicitors works with the best liability engineers to prove negligence or breaches of safety regulations that have caused the carbon monoxide poisoning. We use the best toxicologists and neurologists to establish the extent of the carbon monoxide poisoning.

We are also well aware of the tactics that can be used by insurance companies in contesting Carbon Monoxide poisoning cases and we use our expertise in this area of law to obtain the best results for our clients.

If you want to talk to someone about a possible claim for carbon monoxide poisoning, please call 0870 143 0970. Our team operates from offices across the country and can offer immediate and accessible legal representation across the UK.
