It can occur from a work accident, car crash, from medications such as a diabetes drug, a dangerous product, malpractice, an innocent looking amusement park ride that malfunctions, substandard or failed surgery, assault, animal attack or a multitude of other causes.
But regardless how it happens, the amputation of a finger, toe or limb changes a person’s life forever.

Emotional suffering, embarrassment, and psychological stress
Disability and disfigurement
Loss of quality of life
The Process
Every day can be a struggle for the amputee, so we make it our objective to recover the benefits deserved by our clients. We devote a large segment of our Bay Area law practice to representing families and their loved ones, including servicing the nearby communities of Oakland and San Jose.
Our experienced legal team realizes there is a high cost associated with the necessary tools for living a full life as an amputee. Items such as prosthetics, handicapped friendly living accommodations, and transportation/specially equipped vehicles may all become lifelong necessities for some patients.
We also understand that items today may cost much more in the future. So we consult experts such as life-care planners and occupational therapists to validate the monetary and emotional support that will be required now and in the years ahead.
At Choulos, Choulos & Wyle, we help clients receive the compensation they deserve to allow them to assimilate into a productive, happy life. We encourage you to contact us to better understand your case. Learn more at our website https://www.ccwlawyers.com.
