Pages On: Arm Injury

An arm injury is usually not severe, unless you have to manage life without your arms. Arm breakages and fractures are very common forms of personal injury claims, where most make a full recovery. However, in the event of arm amputations, people can have their access to work and leisure completely removed, especially where suitable prosthetics are not available. If you’ve suffered an arm injury and aren’t at fault, you will probably be entitled to personal injury compensation.

I can’t rate this company highly enough. I was very sceptical at first as I had not had any dealings with this sort of thing but believe you me, they were very good to me right from the start. There is no pushing you to do anything you don’t want to do, they are always simply sympathetic with your plight. I didn’t think I’d stood a chance but they came through for me for which I am very grateful. Believe you me they are first class.
