If you have been in an accident caused by the negligence of another person that has resulted in the amputation of a leg or the loss of a limb, you need an experienced personal injury attorney to help you recover full and fair compensation for all your losses. You may be unable to work; you may need extensive rehabilitation or physical therapy; you may need to learn how to use a prosthetic limb; or you may no longer be able to participate in activities that you enjoy.

We handle all matters related to personal injury claims for people who have suffered the amputation of a body part, including a finger, hand, arm, toe, foot or leg. When preparing your case, we will consider all the ramifications of your loss of limb, including its effect on your ability to earn a living, drive a vehicle or engage in the simple pleasures of life. We will seek damages to cover all your losses, including wages and income, medical expenses, and pain and suffering. If a prosthetic limb will help you return to a life closer to what you had before your accident, we will help you seek compensation to pay for the prosthesis as well as any therapy or rehabilitation you need to learn how to use it.
In over three decades of practice, we have assembled a network of professionals to help us build and present the best case for recovery for each client. We employ private investigators, medical experts, life planners, rehabilitation, physical therapy specialists and financial experts to help you get the recovery you need and deserve.

People who suffer the loss of a part of their body have significant psychological injury as well. If you are experiencing depression, anxiety, unexplainable fears, or other emotional difficulties after the accident which caused you to lose a part of your body, it is advisable to seek professional help for those problems as well. Psychiatrists are medical doctors that can help. Psychologists also do psychotherapy with patients to help with these and other emotional or psychological disorders caused by an amputation or loss of a body part.
