Amputations

Arizona Amputation Injury Lawyers

At Koplow & Patane, our attorneys have extensive experience with cases of serious personal injury. While we handle many types of injury cases, we focus on catastrophic injuries such as brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, burn injuries, and amputations. These traumatic events have lifelong consequences which must be taken into account in determining what compensation would be appropriate. If you have been seriously injured in an accident requiring amputation, contact us today to schedule a free initial consultation.

Amputations come in many different forms. From fingers and toes, or even portions of a finger or toe, to entire limbs, the calculation of proper compensation can be complicated. Prosthetics are often very expensive and must be periodically replaced throughout the life of the user. If an amputation injury is the fault of a negligent person, that person should bear the responsibility of paying for prosthetic devices. An amputation may require the modification of vehicles or homes to accommodate the injury. The cost of modifying bathrooms, counter tops, doorways, and more should not fall on an innocent victim.

Beyond the cost of new physical limitations, medical bills, rehabilitation, therapy, lost wages, pain and suffering, there may be other losses that relate to the amputation that must be accounted for. As former attorneys for an insurance company, we are highly familiar with the methods used in the insurance industry to limit liability and deny a claim. Whether the injury occurred in an auto accident, or a hunting accident, the victim should be properly compensated.

Contact us if you have been involved in a serious accident in Arizona. As amputation lawyers, we understand how to help our clients deal with these traumatic situations.
