The realisation of your future following the amputation can be intimidating but, at Alexander Harris, we have a specialist team of amputation lawyers that can help you through this difficult period whilst taking care of the legal side of a compensation claim.

Our specialist team of lawyers will provide you with effective legal advice as well as the support and guidance necessary to begin your rehabilitation. We have forged strong links with national support groups including the Limbless Association and Douglas Bader Foundation who can also offer support and advice. We also have access to leading medical experts and our experience working with amputees enables us to understand and plan for some of the challenges and difficulties you may encounter.

Amputation care needs
We can also help you assess your care needs including identifying the right prosthesis, fitting the prosthesis, caring for the stump, dealing with mobility problems and anticipating complications. The level and duration of care will depend on the severity of the amputation and your ability to adapt and cope with the prosthesis. Equally the length of time over which help will be needed will vary from person to person with age and general health.

Types of Amputation Injury
Our specialist amputation lawyers can assist with many types of amputations including:

Lower Limb Amputations

Upper Limb Amputations
