Railroad Amputation Lawyer

Amputation of a limb can be one of the most devastating, life-altering injuries a person can suffer. Not only is the injury itself extremely painful and traumatizing, but it can also result in long-lasting chronic pain, depression, and self-consciousness. In addition, the cost of medical care, life care, and the use of prosthetics can be astronomical, further complicating the mental and physical healing process. Unfortunately, railroaders have an alarmingly high rate of amputations. Much higher than that of other industries. The continuous presence of heavy moving equipment puts workers in constant danger of amputation. In 2021 alone, there were 92 railroad-related amputations reported by the Federal Railroad Administration. Roughly one every four days. Whether you lose an arm, leg, hand, foot, finger, or toe, an amputation can be debilitating and can affect a railroader’s ability to continue working and earning a living. If this has happened to you, a railroad amputation lawyer from our firm is here to help fight for the compensation you deserve.
