When asked for a comment, he said, “Carbon monoxide is one of the leading causes of fatal poisoning in the United States, because it’s tasteless and odorless, meaning that no one can detect it with their senses. Here are the things you must do if you have injuries as a result of carbon monoxide.”

According to Klibaner, the first step is to immediately vacate the premises and notify the fire department or gas company.

“This is crucial because either the fire department and gas company can measure exactly how much carbon monoxide is in the air and locate the source of the leak. They will then write up a report, which you should get a copy of for your records,” he said.

Klibaner was quick to add paramedics who come to the site will further do breath and blood tests to measure that person’s carbon monoxide levels.

It’s also vital to get in touch with an attorney who can establish the extent of the damages.

When asked about how he usually goes about doing this, he said, “Almost always I would hire an engineer to examine the appliance that caused the leak, and they can pinpoint exactly what went wrong. The important point here is to get someone to look at the appliance itself.”

“Of course, it’s not this cut and dried as there are other factors to consider, such as the conditions of the house or apartment. Various issues might arise with ventilation, so you need a good expert to determine airflow, which can show what kind of exposure the person has had over what time period. Then you compare that with the symptoms the person had to prove carbon monoxide poisoning,” he said.

Klibaner further underlined the significance of documentation, particularly when a case must go to trial after a settlement has not been reached.

“A massive issue that always comes up is documenting damages and injuries. This is to prove carbon monoxide poisoning to insurance companies, who will try to claim otherwise to avoid a payout. Carbon monoxide can cause either heart or neurological problems, so insurance companies will always look at something else to try to claim a psychological condition or something else not related to the carbon monoxide.”
