Amputation
Clients who suffer from Catastrophic injuries often times will never return to their way of life before the injury. Catastrophic injuries do not only affect the person injured, but their loved ones. These injuries will likely result in a lifetime of anticipated and unanticipated expenses. Additionally, the injured party can rarely return to work adding to the problem.
While all law firms will take an amputation case, none will match up to Werner Law. Our success with amputation cases are unsurpassed due to our relationship with prosthetists, physiatrists, life care planners, and physicians. We have literally received amputation cases from other law firms and while they were unable to obtain a settlement for “X,” we received 2-3 times the amount the prior law firm was trying to get.
At Werner Law, we recognize that our Client’s only have one chance to get it right and having an experienced attorney who has a proven track record of receiving record verdicts and settlements is critical. Werner Law refuses to settle for anything less than full value. We retain experts who will determine the total costs of medical care over our Client’s lifetime and if the insurance company refuses to pay what we ask, then we will seek to receive more by a jury of our peers.
Even after our client’s case is finished, we stay in touch and ensure you obtain the help you need as you move on with your new life.
If you or a loved one has suffered limb loss due to the fault of a third party, you may be entitled to financial compensation to cover medical bills, lost wages and other damages. While there are lots of personal injury attorneys, if you want to ensure the value of your case is maximized, then call Werner Law.
LET A PROFESSIONAL FIGHT FOR YOUR RECOVERY
Although there have been major technological advances in the field of prosthetics, no amount of money can bring a limb back that’s been lost.
However, the legal system is a means to provide you with compensation for your losses while holding negligent and reckless individuals responsible for their actions.
Have an experienced and capable amputation lawyer represent all of your interests after an injury.
REPRESENTING AMPUTEES
At Werner Law, our attorneys represent clients who have suffered catastrophic injuries, including lost limbs and amputations. As experienced trial lawyers, we know that you have more options than you may think. We represent the victims of many types of accidents which can result an amputated limb, including arms, hands, fingers, legs, feet and toes:
• Traumatic Amputations: Traumatic limb loss happens during the accident itself.
• Surgical Amputations: When a surgeon determines a damaged limb cannot be saved after an accident, the surgeon may need to amputate that limb.
The amount of compensation you may receive after the loss of a limb depends on several factors. Compensation is broken down into two categories, tangible and intangible. Tangible items are things such as your past and future medical bills, cost of house modifications and lost wages. Pain and Suffering falls under Intangibles which is compensation for not only all that you have gone through, but all that you will go through for the rest of your life.
If you have lost a limb, your focus should be getting the most advanced and best prosthetic available and getting the help you need to adjust to a new way of life. You may need to work with physical and occupational therapists to gain new skills. You may also need to master prosthetic equipment to help you function as normally as possible. Our focus is on helping you during that transition and allowing you to concentrate on your mental and physical needs while we obtain justice for you.
