Amputation Solicitors
Our specialist Amputation Solicitors are experts in making successful injury claims for amputations caused by an accident or where a body part, such as an arm or leg, is amputated in surgery following an accident.
If you have suffered an amputation injury in the past three years and you believe that it was caused by the fault or negligence of someone else, then you may be able to make a claim for financial recompense. Please contact the serious injury claims team at PSR Solicitors for a free initial consultation by calling the freephone number at the top of this page, or by completing the online enquiry form.
We'll manage the entire process for you. From handling the Amputation Claim for your injury, recovering lost earnings and arranging private medical treatment from rehabilitation and counselling.
We're always determined to secure the optimal compensation package to get life back on track for our clients. Amputation is one of the most severe, often life-changing injuries that someone can be forced to deal with.
Our expert Amputation Solicitors have helped countless people over the years, and we are specifically knowledgeable in the needs of ongoing care packages for people who have suffered amputations caused by a traumatic accident. Pursuing justice in the best way to make provision for your immediate and future needs is not something that you must handle on your own.
You need specialist advice and we will go to great lengths to ensure your best interests for now and the future are fully considered by the Courts. As a LEXCEL Accredited law firm, accredited by the Law Society for Personal Injury Claims, you can trust us to help you.
If you have suffered an amputation injury, whether you have been trapped in a machine at work or been injured in a serious motorbike accident, we know how difficult it can be to cope on your own. The injury itself will be causing you pain and suffering but it will also place severe limitations on your lifestyle. Our expert Amputation Solicitors are here to help.
They were very helpful, better value, and dealt with my claim within 7 months. After a 4 and a half years issue with my previous solicitors.
Quality and professional service. My claim was dealt with very quickly and efficiently, would highly recommend.
PSR’s quotation for my work was competitive and I have other conveyancing work coming up soon but I won’t be shopping around and will go straight to PSR again.
Excellent services, very professional.
Lovely persons
Would highly recommend PSR for any conveyancing needed.
The value of your settlement for accidents that lead to the amputation of an arm, leg, hand or foot depends on many factors, such as the extent of the amputation, the age of the injured person, their ability to continue working, their profession, adaptations that may be required around the home or with vehicles in order to maintain a comfortable and independent life, and whether dependants are involved as well.
For some, life may continue pretty much as it did before the accident; however, for others, losing a limb can have devastating consequences for their lives.
Consideration has to be given to providing help around the home, prostheses, home and vehicle adaptation, and perhaps even professional re-training in a different area of employment. Amputation Claims of this nature often take many years to conclude as the extent of the effects of the injury are only known once the injured person has learnt to cope with their disability.
Securing the maximum financial settlement won’t remove the pain or trauma you have experienced, nor will it repair the injuries you suffered in full, but a successful, high-value Amputation Claim payout could be crucial and fundamental to your best chances of recovery and it will protect you from any financial disadvantage. It will allow you to access the very best treatments, services, and medical professionals that will combine to help you come to terms with your injury and begin to live independently again.
By seeking the expertise of trusted, legal professionals you are giving yourself the best chance of a successful claim and receiving every penny you deserve.
Your amputation claim settlement is there as recompense for what has happened to you and will cover costs including:
For more information on the level of 'general damages', you might expect to receive as part of your claim settlement, and if you have suffered an amputation injury through a no-fault accident, see our Loss of Limb Compensation Calculator guide.
Injuries resulting in surgical amputation are completely life-changing and are often the most difficult to come to terms with. They can affect mobility and independence and make it impossible to carry on with life as it was before. It is understandable therefore that injuries of this nature are amongst the most traumatic and distressing.
This type of amputation is frequently the consequence of serious accidents including:
It is imperative that you receive maximum support from the outset in order to receive swift and vital treatment to put you on the road to recovery and to protect both your physical and mental well-being.
Our experienced Amputation Claims Solicitors can help you with a wide range of compensation claims such as:
Your questions answered
If you have suffered an amputation, and you believe that it was caused by the fault or negligence of someone else, then you may be able to make a claim for compensation.
Loss of limb compensation amounts are generally much greater than those awarded for other serious harm due to the severity, permanence and impact of the injuries, which will last a lifetime.
The amount of compensation that you are eligible to receive will be dependent on a number of factors including the extent of your injuries, the full impact on you and your loved ones, whether you can continue working, how long your recovery is likely to take and all the financial implications of what has happened to you.
For free advice from professional Amputation Solicitors then please get in touch by completing the enquiry form, or call our freephone number at the top of this page.
Pursuing a compensation claim can feel daunting and overwhelming, particularly after everything you have already been through. Financial recompense however is essential to your recovery and we are here to help make everything as easy and straightforward as possible for you.
From the moment of your initial enquiry we are here to offer guidance and support. We will gather the details of where and how the injury occurred, how you have been affected and the long-term prognosis for your injuries. We will need details such as who else was involved and whether there were any witnesses. We will then be able to advise on how likely it is that your claim will be successful and how much compensation you can expect to receive.
We understand that these conversations may be difficult and upsetting for you. We will go at a pace you are comfortable with and will never put pressure on you or make you feel rushed. We can carry out face-to-face appointments with you at home or in hospital and will do everything we can to make you feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible.
Accidents in the workplace are one of the most common causes of serious injury where amputation is the consequence. We frequently represent clients who have been injured while using heavy machinery or equipment such as on building sites or in factories and also those who have been injured as the result of chemical spills in laboratories or on industrial plants.
The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 is clear about your employer’s responsibility to provide a safe working environment, including adequate training, supervision, equipment and protective clothing. If your employer has not met their responsibilities then you may be able to pursue a claim against them.
Many people worry about losing their jobs as a result of making a personal injury claim, but the law is on your side and you are fully protected. It is illegal for your employer to make you redundant, harass you or create a hostile environment that makes you want to leave your job.
We can advise you on these matters to put your mind at ease and will support you at all stages.

Richard Layfield LLB
Solicitor - Head of Personal Injury
I've been a Solicitor at PSR Solicitors since March 2013 and am head of Personal Injury throughout the firm as well as having full responsibility for managing the Rhyl office.
I completed both my Law LLB and LPC degrees at Cardiff University, graduating in 2008 and 2009 respectively. Thereafter, I completed my 2-year training contract at a firm based in Cardiff, then I was retained by this firm as a Criminal Defence Solicitor until I decided to relocate up to North Wales.
As an experienced personal injury and civil litigation Solicitor, I represent Claimants in all manner of personal injury case work including injuries as a result of Road Traffic Accidents, Accidents at Work, and Occupiers Liability Accidents. I handle all types off personal injury claims from the minor right through to complex, serious injury claims.
Outside of work I'm a keen rugby fan, who enjoys running and travel.

Paul Rossiter LLB Law
Managing Director
I qualified as a solicitor in 1998 and worked as a Personal Injury Specialist throughout my legal career, dealing with high value serious injury cases obtaining both compensation and rehabilitation for my clients. I was a member of APIL (Association Of Personal injury Lawyers) and recognised by the Law Society as being a Senior Personal Injury Solicitor.
After working in various law firms, both small high street firms and a larger practice in Manchester, I saw a gap in the market for a high quality practice that had the same core high street values of being personable and approachable and combining them with the efficiency and professionalism of a larger practice. PSR Solicitors was therefore established in 2009 and since then PSR Solicitors has provided high quality legal services to local clients throughout North Wales and Cheshire.
I live in Chester with my young family and 2 dogs and enjoy regular holidays along the coast of North Wales and Ibiza.
I have recently been asked to join the board of trustees at Platform For Life, a mental health counselling charity in Chester. Good mental health is the foundation of a more fulfilled, happy and healthy life, yet many families struggle to access the help and support they need to achieve it. Platform for Life offers free local counselling and play therapy for families who would otherwise not be able to afford it.

Solicitor - Head of Litigation

I completed my law degree and legal practice course at Nottingham Law School, before qualifying as a solicitor in 2004. I then worked at a specialist personal injury firm in the East Midlands and a leading regional firm, before joining PSR in 2017.
With PSR I've continued to specialise in acting for Personal Injury claimants and have developed a keen understanding of the procedures and tactics involved in pursuing a claim, as well as the difficulties and concerns faced by people who have suffered as the result of an accident.
Since 2014 I've been proud to help hundreds of people. I've represented the public in all manner of injury claims, including serious orthopaedic injuries, brain damage, and psychological trauma. I was instructed to deal with claims for clients in the aftermath of the Potters Bar rail crash and the Penhallow hotel fire.
In addition, I represent clients in relation to all manner of disputes. I have dealt with professional negligence claims, such as those against solicitors and builders. I have helped clients recover money which is due to them and to dispute invoices which have been sent to them. I have helped business defend claims against them. I have tackled neighbour and boundary disputes.
I live locally to the Colwyn Bay office, and outside of work, I enjoy taking advantage of the coastal and mountain outdoor activities which are available on the doorstep. I'm also heavily involved with an outdoor pursuits charity, which I find an enjoyable and rewarding way of using my free time.

Compensation in personal injury claims is determined under two categories; general damages and special damages. General damages is compensation awarded for the physical pain and suffering, mental pain and anguish and lower quality of life caused as a result of the physical injury itself. Special damages are awarded to cover all of the actual expenses incurred due to the accident such as medical expenses, travel costs, medication costs and loss of income.
