Amputation Compensation Claims

Amputation compensation claims solicitors

Our personal injury solicitors deal with amputation compensation claims on a no win, no fee basis to ensure that you receive 100% of the compensation that you are awarded.

Amputation injuries

However you sustained your amputation, whether in a road accident, an accident at work, a fall, or possibly an unfortunate and unexpected complication from what appeared to initially be a more minor incident, you may be eligible to make a no win, no fee compensation claim.

For free and expert advice on making a personal injury claim click here or call us free on 0800 0384 384. We are available to take your call twenty four hours a day, seven days a week. We can start by reviewing your claim at no cost to you.

We are dedicated to thoroughly investigating liability, and we have successfully acted for amputees in complex cases, including A, an above knee double amputee whose wedding dress became entangled in the prop shaft of a customised trike and R, who sustained an above knee amputation in a road accident, caused by a faulty and poorly maintained tyre.

Assessing amputation compensation

To ensure you receive proper rehabilitation and compensation we will work closely with you and rely on medical evidence from experts in their fields. We will normally arrange for you to be seen by an orthopaedic consultant, and often a pain management consultant to help if you are experiencing ongoing pain, including phantom pains.

We will secure interim payments to ensure your quality of life and rehabilitation whilst your compensation claim is assessed. A clinical case manager, experienced in dealing with amputees, can be appointed to help you to secure the care, equipment and therapies you need.

Investigating the most suitable prosthesis is often a focus for a newly injured person - we can help by appointing an expert prosthetist to work with you to locate the most suitable equipment, taking into account your lifestyle and hobbies. We will work alongside therapists including physiotherapists and occupational therapists.

You may need to move home, or adapt your home to make sure it is suitable for your long term needs, and you may need an adapted vehicle to get back behind the wheel. These are all factors which we will take into account when building your amputation compensation claim.

The effect on your ability to work will also need to be carefully considered and your return to the workplace monitored.

Amputation compensation: the financial package

Our specialist amputation lawyers will work with you, alongside financial experts, to discuss whether you would benefit from a lump sum compensation payment or alternatively annual periodical payments of a sum of money capable of covering your care and other needs.

Our support does not end when your settlement is reached. We can also provide help and support with any other problems you may face, including disability discrimination issues, welfare benefits advice, wills and trusts, employment advice and investment issues.
