Traumatic Amputation Claims

Sunday June 6, 2010 at 1:28pm
In our experience, traumatic amputations are often caused by car/motorcycle accidents, power tools, lawnmowers, farm equipment, kitchen or factory knives or guillotine or train crashes. They involve the removal of the whole or part of an arm/hand or a leg/foot, fingers, ears or nose.

If you have suffered a traumatic amputation as a result of an accident at a construction or building site, or in a car or motor cycle accident or a restaurant kitchen or a factory or any workplace you may be entitled to claim compensation for your amputation.

Amputation of your limb or limbs is very personal to you. Many people we have helped, who have lost their limbs in accidents, feel the loss as a bereavement. The emotional effect is similar to losing a loved one and it takes a long time to adapt to such a traumatic loss. Physically, your body has been permanently changed and the terrible loss will affect all aspects of your life.

With the right help, training and equipment, a person with even a major amputation is able to perform certain activities. Improved medical care and rehabilitation has helped individuals who have suffered serious traumatic amputations to regain their ability to walk again and engage in various activities. Children tend to heal faster than adults and they adapt more quickly.
