What Is an Amputation Claim?

An amputation claim allows you to seek compensation for the loss of a limb caused by an accident or negligent medical treatment. Losing an arm, leg, hand, or foot can have a devastating effect on daily life, limiting mobility, independence, and employment opportunities.

These claims often arise from road traffic accidents, workplace incidents, medical negligence, or other serious accidents where another party is at fault. We can help you recover damages to cover medical expenses, prosthetic costs, loss of earnings, emotional trauma, and ongoing care needs.

Common Causes of Amputations

Amputations can happen for many reasons, including:

  • Road traffic accidents (car, motorbike, or pedestrian collisions)
  • Workplace accidents (machinery incidents, crush injuries, or falls from height)
  • Construction and industrial accidents
  • Medical negligence (delayed treatment, misdiagnosis, or surgical error)
  • Severe infections left untreated
  • Violent assaults or traumatic injuries

Even if your injury seemed minor at first, amputation-related injuries often lead to life-altering consequences. Let us help you understand your rights and pursue a claim for full compensation.

If you have suffered from any of these injuries, we are here to help you seek the compensation and care you deserve.

  • Pain and suffering

The legal term ‘No Win No Fee’ is used to describe how solicitors take on a case where they pay the costs of the litigation.

Solicitors in who operate on this basis pay all legal costs associated with the personal injury case.

In the vast majority of cases, clients would not be in a position to fund the cost of litigation and therefore it is usual for a specialised Personal Injury/Medical and Dental Negligence law firm to operate on a ‘No Win No Fee’ basis.

It should be noted that there is no prohibition on solicitors in undertaking work on a no win no fee basis, and solicitors are perfectly entitled to offer their services on a no win no fee basis.
