An amputation is one of the most serious and debilitating form of injury we see in personal injury cases. These types of injuries produce immense pain and emotional suffering. An amputee faces the burden of a lifetime of expensive medical treatment and societal stigma. Often the victim’s ability to earn a living or enjoy simple, everyday activities as been altered forever.
Approximately 18,500 Americans are injured every year in accidents that are serious enough to require the amputation of a limb. Dismemberment typically refers to the loss of an arm, leg, hand, foot, fingers, or toes. Loss of a limb injuries result in a major loss of function for the victim.
These types of injuries are on an entirely different level. Serious injury cases require more attention and care when structuring a settlement or arriving at a judgment that will adequately care for your needs for the rest of your life.

Recovering from an amputation can be a very difficult time for an accident victim. The emotional trauma of losing a limb along can take a significant emotional toll on any person, and the process can be physically and emotionally painful.
Most amputation victims spend a significant amount of time recovering in the hospital before returning home and continuing the rehabilitation process. Doctors and nurses will monitor the patient’s recovery and ensure that the limb is free of infection, which can only make the issue worse.
In fact, approximately 22 percent of patients who have a lower-limb amputated are expected to be re-admitted to the hospital for complications within 30 days of the surgery.
Dismemberment causes permanent disability. The loss of a leg, arm, hand or finger can have a lasting impact on career or work opportunities. Loss of future income is a critical factor when calculating fair and reasonable compensation for amputees.
The inability to work and enjoy your previous life is a significant factor in determining the viability and value of any personal injury claim. If you or a loved one has lost a limb after an accident and are considering legal action, it may be a good idea to consult with an attorney who has experience handling these types of injury claims.
Amputations occur in extremely serious accidents, many involving a motor vehicle of some sort.
