Losing a limb is traumatic and impacts every aspect of life. Our team of expert personal injury solicitors understand that a compensation claim is just the beginning. The real work begins to ensure you receive ongoing rehabilitation to achieve recovery.
We draw on many years' amputation claims experience to support clients in the UK and abroad. We work with transtibial (below the knee), through-the-knee and transfemoral (above the knee) amputates, as well as those who have suffered upper limb amputation. These are typically caused by road traffic collisions or accidents at work.
We are proud to be a panel firm for the Limbless Association, the UK charity supporting people with limb-loss, as well as sponsoring the LimbPower guides, available at all prosthetic limb centres and private clinics across the UK.
We are also proud to have sponsored GB paratriathlete Andy Lewis in the lead up to the Rio Paralympics. Andy, aged 32, lost his leg in a road traffic accident aged 16. After years of struggling with his injury, Andy took up triathlon and won gold at Rio.
We recently hosted an Amputee Conference at our London office entitled Early Input, Functional Outcomes, attended by former clients, expert practitioners, care providers and Paralympians. They discussed how best to support people coming to terms with amputation.
At the event, leading psychologist Dr Mark Salter spoke about the unique experiences of amputees coming to terms with their new normal. Listen to an extract of Mark's talk below.
