Western New York Amputation\u00a0Attorneys<\/h1>\n

Losing a limb can be a devastating shock that forever\u00a0changes the victim’s life. The emotional trauma increases if the amputation happens unexpectedly due to injuries suffered\u00a0in\u00a0an accident. If the accident was caused by someone else, the victim’s mental anguish is worse still. Aside from physical and psychological effects, the amputation also brings financial issues with\u00a0the cost of surgery, hospital, long-term home care,\u00a0prosthetic limb, physical therapy, and counseling\u00a0to adjust to life without the severed limb. Not to mention loss of income from missed work and a career change if the injury prevents returning to the same occupation.<\/p>\n

If you or a loved one have experienced such a loss, the personal injury lawyers at Nicholas, Perot, Smith, Bernhardt & Zosh<\/strong> want you to know there’s hope. We can help you prepare a case against those responsible for the amputation to receive compensation for what you’ve suffered. Our team of experienced lawyers\u00a0will give you the proper legal representation you need to get through this difficult time.<\/p>\n

Amputations are a danger on the job for people who work in construction, around heavy equipment or\u00a0industrial jobs around machinery.\u00a0An on-the-job accident is usually resolved through\u00a0workers’ compensation. If the injury happened due to medical negligence, it may be\u00a0a medical malpractice case. Otherwise, an amputation accident is typically pursued as a personal injury case.<\/p>\n

Why Work with Us? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Our\u00a0serious injury\u00a0lawyers understand the\u00a0nuances involved in these cases\u00a0from years of helping people in Western New York face similar hardships. We work with medical professionals and experts to build a case for\u00a0your claim against those at fault, regardless of the type of case.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a limit to the amount of medical expenses\u00a0covered by\u00a0workers’ compensation insurance. Serious injuries, such as amputations with lifetime consequences, often require more\u00a0than workers’ comp\u00a0insurance will provide. In such situations, our legal team may be able to file a separate personal injury lawsuit. If the amputation injury was caused by malfunctioning or defective equipment, the case\u00a0may be\u00a0product liability\u00a0and we can pursue\u00a0the manufacturer.<\/p>\n

No matter what type of litigation, the attorneys of Nicholas, Perot, Smith, Bernhardt & Zosh<\/strong> know how to help you get the money\u00a0you need to put\u00a0your life back together. We have the resources and knowledge to prepare a case demanding compensation for your emotional and mental anguish.
