Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Recovery Process for Amputations?

Recovering from an amputation is a physical and emotional journey, for both the victim and those closest to them. These catastrophic injuries typically require surgery, long hospital stays and initial wound care. The recovery process takes even longer, typically requiring physical rehabilitation, pain management, and emotional support or therapy. Some individuals have a prosthetic fitting and ongoing training to adapt to life with a prosthetic limb. Recovery can take months or years, depending on the type of amputation and the individual’s overall health. Contact Us Today

What is the Lifelong Cost of Having an Amputation?

The financial burden of an amputation is significant and often underestimated. The costs can build up quickly and often last a lifetime. Everything from prosthetics (which need replacement every few years) to ongoing medical care, physical and occupational therapy, home and vehicle modifications, lost income, and psychological counseling can add up quickly. These expenses can be overwhelming for many families. Contact Us Today

What Kinds of Compensation Can Amputation Victims Receive?

Amputation victims may be entitled to both economic and non-economic damages. This includes coverage for medical expenses, rehabilitation, prosthetics, lost wages, loss of future earning capacity, home modifications, and more. Victims can also seek compensation for pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, and in some cases, punitive damages if the injury was caused by extreme negligence or misconduct.

Can I File a Lawsuit after an Amputation Injury?

Yes. If your amputation was caused by someone else’s negligence—such as a car accident, workplace injury, medical malpractice, or a defective product—you may have grounds for a personal injury lawsuit.
