Carbon monoxide poisoning results in thousands of fatalities and injuries each year.  Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, and poisonous gas, which is why it is sometimes referred to as the "invisible killer."  Carbon monoxide poisoning is a common industrial hazard, but many people are injured or killed by the effects of carbon monoxide poisoning at home and on vacation while in hotels, garages, cars, and boats.  Everyone is at risk for carbon monoxide poisoning and unfortunately, severe damage and even death can occur before you even realize what is happening.   

For more than 20 years, The Law Office of Don Russo, P.A., known as The Carbon Monoxide Lawyer, focused on the evaluation, preparation and successful closure of carbon monoxide poisoning cases.   The firm  successfully closed more than 150 multiple-party catastrophic toxic tort cases involving toxic substances, and most particularly, carbon monoxide accidents. 

In 2011, the firm turned its attention to working as expert injury and claim consultants in order to devote more time to the evaluation of cases and the medical needs of victims.  Don Russo has retired from the active practice of law, and acts as a consultant, placing the cases of carbon monoxide victims with the best lawyers for their cases .  His team of expert investigators and paralegals now travel throughout the U.S. quickly and accurately evaluating carbon monoxide poisoning claims and helping victims get both the medical and legal help they need.   They work with only the foremost medical and legal professionals in this highly specialized area.
