There were no working carbon monoxide detectors in the home.

Using alternative sources of power after severe weather, such as winter storms, can cause carbon monoxide to build up in a home, poisoning the people and animals inside. Every year, at least 430 people in the United States die as a result of carbon monoxide poisoning, and about 50,000 people in the United States visit an emergency room.

Family members are often left in a difficult situation after a loved one’s life is tragically cut short due to the negligence of another, and recovering can be a battle for those left to pick up the pieces. People are naturally grieving, and filing a lawsuit is usually the last thing on their minds.

In contrast, a wrongful death lawsuit may be able to help your family recover financial compensation as a result of your tragic loss. Working with an experienced Cleveland serious injury lawyer can help you improve your chances of obtaining a favorable settlement.
