According to national statistics, there are about three million amputees living in the United States.
While this is a large number, the pain is still individual. Each person has his life permanently changed due to a personal injury. He had to give up doing things he once enjoyed and learn how to do familiar things in new ways. He also suffered emotional pain and suffering, as well as worry about hospital bills and lost work.

Amputations in Work-Related Accidents
Workplace accidents are the most common place for amputations. Most of the people who suffered amputations on the job lost the limb while working on dangerous machinery. There were many reasons for this. Defective or inadequate safety guards or guards that had been removed were often to blame. Poor training was also a factor, often leading to failure to comply with safety regulations.
When the attorneys at Rosenn Jenkins & Greenwald LLP handle your case, we consider all the factors that may affect you. Whether or not the accident happened at work, we carefully calculate all the ways your amputation has changed your life. You may need a prosthetic device. You may also need physical therapy, occupational therapy or job training. A favorable recovery in your personal injury can give you the resources necessary to reclaim your life and begin moving forward.
