Compensation For Loss Of Limb/Amputation

We work closely with clients, doctors and many professionals to illustrate the profound impact of loss of limb. Compensation must cover a lifetime of expensive medical care, including surgeries or prosthetics to restore function and appearance as much as possible. Damages must also provide projected earnings if the person cannot continue in a career or work at all.

We also strive to compensate clients for the impact on daily living, from physical challenges to loss of favorite activities. Damages for emotional trauma, psychological counseling, disfigurement and social isolation all may apply. Our attorneys know how to cast this abstract harm in concrete terms to maximize compensation.
