AMPUATION INJURIES OVERVIEW
There are an estimated 3 million victims of amputation accidents in this country with more than 150,000 new amputees each year. Traumatic amputations (the accidental severing of some or all of a part) are often the result of a car accident, motorcycle accident, farm accident, workplace accident, medical malpractice, unsafe products, or the misuse a lawnmower, saw or other power tool. Most on-the-job amputation accidents are caused by inadequate machinery guards, improper repairs, improper equipment training, or other unsafe work conditions.
Amputation injuries and prosthetics also pose many risks associated with medical side effects and other amputation complications, including:
- Chronic Neuroma (pain and/or tenderness in the amputation area)
- Poor wound cover and healing
- Infection
- Stiffness
- Sympathetic Dystrophy Syndrome
DO NOT RELY ON INSURANCE COMPANIES
Do not accept any claim before you speak with an attorney. Many large insurance companies have adopted settlement policies that encourage their adjusters to offer quick payments to persons involved in an accident. Insurance adjusters will contact you or your family shortly after an accident to try to gain your confidence. In doing so, insurance adjusters often try to present themselves as the friend of the injured person or the family of the person who was killed in an accident. The goal of such contact is to settle the case on terms as favorable as possible for the insurance company.
