While there can be other organs injured, carbon monoxide cases are primarily about how brain damage has changed the lives of people who survive carbon monoxide poisoning. Thus, Attorney Johnson’s decades of deposing neurologists, neuropsychologists and neuroradiologists gives him unique qualifications to represent those whose lives have been devastated by carbon monoxide poisoning.
