Our Amputation Injury Lawyers Help You Make Informed Legal Decisions
Traumatic amputation, whether it’s the loss of a fingertip or an entire limb, is a life-changing event for the victim. Even if it’s possible to reattach the body part, the victim will have to undergo surgery and therapy. The part may never work quite the same. If doctors cannot reattach the body part, the person must live without a finger, toe, arm, or leg for the rest of his or her life.
Amputation cases resulting from accidents or injuries involve complex legal issues that our injury lawyers can help address. Call our California amputation injury lawyers at (888) 488-1391 to discuss your case.
What Can Cause Traumatic Amputations?
Whether in your vehicle, home, or workplace, losing a body part can be frightening. Most traumatic amputation incidents occur in car accidents, factories, and farms.
Heavy machinery and power tools can lead to accidental loss of limbs in a matter of seconds. Explosions can also result in amputations. Protective gear, machinery guards, and proper care while driving can help prevent these accidents.
Unfortunately, someone else’s negligence can result in a traumatic amputation that permanently affects the victim’s life. Amputations have many consequences, including:
- Complications such as bleeding, infection, and shock.
- Crushed or badly mangled body parts.
- Severe pain.
- “Phantom limb,” or the feeling that the limb is still attached.
- Lifelong disability.
- Surgeries for reattachment.
- Years of physical therapy.
Traumatic amputation is an extremely serious injury that typically has permanent ramifications. The victim may have to pay for long hospital stays, multiple surgeries, and physical rehabilitation. He or she may also have to go to therapy for emotional stress from the traumatic incident. Victims may not be able to return to their previous jobs due to disability and suffer a loss of income.
If you or someone you love is facing all of these damages or others due to amputation from an accident, come to our injury law firm for legal counsel.

Amputation Liability In California
Our amputation injury lawyers have experience handling complex amputation cases involving more than one factor and defendant. We may be able to negotiate with large insurance companies and help you seek available compensation for your catastrophic injury. This type of injury can be life-altering. It may require dedicated legal advocacy to show the full impact of your pain and intangible losses.
Our team can pursue your case against employers, product manufacturers, and other parties that may be liable for your amputation. The first step towards fair compensation after an amputation is to identify the cause of your injury.
If a defective firework exploded and took off a finger, for example, the manufacturer of the firework may be to blame. Identify potential defendants and file a claim against them. An injury attorney near you can help with this process, as it involves important deadlines and filing requirements. In California, you have two years from the date of your amputation to file a personal injury claim.
A single act of negligence can result in a lifelong disability. Amputations can result in chronic pain and permanent disfigurement. Arash Law and the team led by Arash Khorsandi, Esq., believe that the parties responsible for such injuries should face liability. Our team works to help amputees explore their legal options for seeking compensation.
Filing a claim is an important step toward pursuing compensation for your serious injury and possible future losses. Some amputation cases may require exploring additional legal options beyond initial insurance claims. Our team can help you negotiate with insurers and explore other legal options if necessary.
