An amputation is the loss or surgical removal of a body part, such as a hand, foot, arm, leg, toe, or finger. While some amputations are medically necessary due to disease, others result from traumatic accidents, especially in serious car crashes, workplace incidents, or construction accidents.
Amputations can involve upper or lower limbs and may range from partial finger loss to full limb removal. These injuries often require extensive surgery, rehabilitation, and emotional support. Victims may experience lasting physical limitations and phantom pain, as well as the need for prosthetics and psychological counseling.
Our experienced injury lawyers have seen amputation cases stem from a variety of traumatic events, including:
Amputations in the workplace are often caused by dangerous machinery and hazardous conditions. According to OSHA, nearly half of all injuries involving mechanical power presses result in amputations. Other high-risk equipment includes conveyor belts, meat grinders, table saws, and industrial machinery that can catch, crush, or sever limbs.
If you suffered an amputation while on the job, it’s essential to work with attorneys who understand both workers’ compensation and third-party liability. In many cases, a party other than your employer, such as a contractor, equipment manufacturer, or property owner, may also share responsibility.
At DiMarco | Araujo | Montevideo, our experienced work injury attorneys investigate all angles to help you recover the maximum compensation you’re entitled to.
Severe crashes involving cars, motorcycles, or commercial trucks can lead to traumatic amputations due to crushing injuries, metal intrusion, or ejection from the vehicle. Motorcyclists and pedestrians are especially vulnerable, as they have little protection in high-impact collisions.
Whether you lost a limb in a highway crash or needed a surgical amputation following a car accident, these injuries are life-altering. Our legal team pursues compensation for medical bills, prosthetics, lost income, pain and suffering, and long-term care needs.
