Texas Accidental Fire Lawyer Handles Texas House Fire Lawsuits, Texas Residential Fire Lawsuits, Texas Smoke Inhalation Lawsuits, Texas Serious Burn Lawsuits, and Other Accident Fire Claims by Texas Accidental Fire Lawyer Jason S. Coomer

In the United States, each year over 30,000 people are killed or seriously injured by fire and smoke inhalation.  Many of these fires are the result of negligence or defective products, that could have been easily prevented.   In  handling Texas Fatal House Fire Lawsuits, Texas Serious Burn Lawsuits, Texas Apartment and Condo Fire Lawsuits, and Texas Smoke Inhalation Lawsuits, it is important to remember that a fatal house fire or serious burn fire can be the result of defective products, careless workers, negligent property owners, defective water heaters, defective gas cans, failure of products to have child proofing, defective wiring, defective appliances, negligence maintenance, and many other negligent actions.  To determine the cause of the fire and/or explosion, it is important to speak with witnesses and fire investigators as well as to obtain any photos or video of the fire and any and all documents related to fire.  For more information on this topic please go to the following web pages: Texas Serious Burn Lawyer InformationTexas Fatal House Fire Lawyer Information, Texas Apartment and Condo Fire Lawyer Information, and Texas Smoke Inhalation Lawyer Information.

Smoke Inhalation Can Cause Death or Severe Injuries

Smoke inhalation from an accidental fire can cause difficulty breathing, hypoxia, carbon monoxide poisoning, and other health issues that can result in serious injuries or even death.  In handling Texas house fires lawsuits, Texas apartment fire lawsuits, and other Texas residential fire lawsuits as well as on Texas industrial explosion lawsuits; Texas smoke inhalation lawyers work with fire experts to determine the cause and origin of fires; medical professionals to prove up necessary medical treatment for those injured in fires; and insurance companies, witnesses, families, and parties to seek compensation for those injured by accidental fires.

Smoke inhalation occurs when a person breathes in smoke or the products of combustion during a fire.  The fire not only uses the surrounding oxygen in the air taking the oxygen that humans need to breathe, but through burning or combustion (the rapid breakdown of a substance by heat) creates smoke which is a mixture of heated particles and gases that are created by burning.

It is impossible to predict the exact composition of smoke produced by a residential fire or industrial fire as every accident fire is different.  The products being burned, the temperature of the fire, and the amount of oxygen available to the fire all make a difference in the type of smoke produced. This is especially true when furniture, appliances, and other items made up of plastic or other chemicals is burned.  The resulting smoke can be filled with irritants or toxins and result in serious respiratory problems or even death.

Smoke inhalation can damage the body by simple asphyxiation (lack of oxygen), chemical irritation, chemical asphyxiation, or a combination of these.  Combustion can use up the oxygen near the fire and lead to death when there is no oxygen for a person to breathe.  Smoke itself can also contain products that do not cause direct harm to a person, but they take up the space that is needed for oxygen. Carbon dioxide acts in this way.

Combustion can also result in the formation of chemicals that cause direct injury when they contact the skin and mucous membranes. These substances disrupt the normal lining of the respiratory tract. This disruption can potentially cause swelling, airway collapse, and respiratory distress. Examples of chemical irritants found in smoke include sulfur dioxide, ammonia, hydrogen chloride, and chlorine.

A fire also can produce compounds that do damage by interfering with the body's oxygen use at a cellular level. Carbon monoxide, hydrogen cyanide, and hydrogen sulfide are all examples of chemicals produced in fires that interfere with the use of oxygen by the cell during the production of energy. If either the delivery of oxygen or the use of oxygen is inhibited, cells will die.

CFTC and SEC Bounty Actions  were designed to create bounties that can be collected by whistleblowers that properly report SEC violations, financial fraud, securities fraud, commodities fraud, and stimulus fraud that result in monetary sanctions over one million dollars ($1,000,000.00). The SEC can award the whistleblower up to 30% of the money collected.  Persons who report this fraud through an attorney can remain anonymous and still collect a large reward through their attorney.  By creating anonymous whistleblower bounties, the SEC and CFTC expect investors and people with specific information of fraud to expose hard to detect fraud and to help regulate the financial market and prevent large investment corporations, banks, hedge funds, and other large corporations from committing financial fraud of billions of dollars.
