Randy Rozek • February 28, 2025
Carbon monoxide poisoning is a serious and potentially life-threatening issue that can have long-lasting effects on victims. In the aftermath of such an event, it is crucial to seek legal expertise to ensure that you receive the proper assistance and compensation for your damages. A lawyer with experience in handling cases related to carbon monoxide poisoning can provide invaluable support in navigating the complexities of this type of injury claim. From protecting your rights to pursuing justice on your behalf, a skilled attorney can be instrumental in helping you recover from the physical, emotional, and financial repercussions of carbon monoxide exposure.
In this blog, we will explore how a lawyer can assist you after experiencing carbon monoxide poisoning and why their expertise is essential in securing the outcome you deserve.
Legal Implications of Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
- Seeking Compensation: If you have suffered from carbon monoxide poisoning due to someone else's negligence, you may be entitled to compensation for your medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages.
- Proving Liability: A lawyer can help gather evidence to prove liability in a carbon monoxide poisoning case. This may involve collecting medical records, witness statements, maintenance logs, and expert testimonies.
- Navigating Legal Processes: Dealing with legal matters can be overwhelming, especially when recovering from a serious health issue like carbon monoxide poisoning. A lawyer can guide you through the legal processes and represent your best interests in court if needed.
Holding Responsible Parties Accountable
- Investigation: A lawyer can help investigate the source of carbon monoxide poisoning in your case. This may involve reviewing maintenance records and collecting evidence to establish liability.
- Identifying Negligence: By analyzing the circumstances leading to the exposure, a lawyer can determine if negligence played a role in your carbon monoxide poisoning. Whether it was due to faulty equipment or improper installation, holding responsible parties accountable is crucial for seeking compensation.
- Legal Action: Once liability is established, a lawyer can assist you in taking legal action against those at fault. This may include filing a personal injury lawsuit or negotiating settlements with insurance companies to ensure that you receive the compensation you deserve for your injuries and damages incurred from carbon monoxide poisoning.
Pursuing Damages for Your Injuries
- Assessment of damages: A lawyer can help you determine the full extent of your injuries and losses resulting from carbon monoxide poisoning, including medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and future care needs.
- Negotiating with insurance companies: Experienced lawyers can handle communications with insurance companies on your behalf to ensure that you receive fair compensation for your injuries.
- Litigation support: If a settlement cannot be reached outside of court, a lawyer will provide representation in legal proceedings to fight for the maximum compensation you deserve.
In conclusion, having a knowledgeable attorney by your side after suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning is crucial in maximizing the compensation you are entitled to for your physical and emotional damages. With their expertise in assessing damages, negotiating with insurers, and providing litigation support if necessary, they can navigate the complexities of legal processes while advocating for your rights effectively.

After an ongoing struggle to bring justice to the victim of an attack at a Wisconsin diabetes clinic, attorney Randy Rozek of Rozek Law Offices, S.C. has won an $8.3 million victory in which a jury found hospital security at fault for the attack and the client’s resulting injuries. In 2014, Rozek’s client was in the waiting room of the diabetes clinic at a local children’s hospital when a 16-year-old girl with a history of violence viciously assaulted her. The victim, who was accompanied by her two young children, was “punched repeatedly in the face and head, had chunks of hair pulled from her head and was struck in the head with a chair,” Rozek said. The children, aged 9 and 11 at the time, were so frightened by the brutal beating that they fled to a stairwell for safety, fearing their mother had been killed by the attacker and that they would be next if the attacker was to find them. Rozek’s client survived the assault, but still struggles with symptoms of a TBI (traumatic brain injury) and PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) following the attack.

AAJ has over 50,000 members and has several different Litigation Groups made up of attorneys that specialize in different areas of the law.

Randy was asked about his election as Chair of the TBILG and had this to say: “It means a lot to me that my fellow trial lawyer colleagues bestowed upon my the great honor of leading the Traumatic Brain Injury Litigation Group for the next year. Our group is made up of some of the greatest TBI lawyers in the country, if not the world.
