AMPUTATION
Improperly maintained equipment can cause construction accidents resulting in amputation.
Amputation is the loss of a body part, often a finger, hand, or arm, or a toe, foot, or leg. Amputations are among the most serious and debilitating construction site injuries. They often occur when workers operate inadequately safeguarded or improperly maintained machinery. Improper employee safety training, unsafe working conditions, and lack of protective equipment can also cause construction accidents resulting in the need for an amputation. Amputation injuries can result in permanent disabilities, as well as emotional and psychological damage. Many amputee victims require multiple surgeries to repair nerve damage and prosthetic limbs, leading to costly medical bills for many years after the accident.
If you are a construction worker who has suffered an amputation injury, it is important to make sure your legal rights are protected. Contact the New York construction accident lawyers at Block O'Toole & Murphy for free legal advice today.
