The financial impact of an amputation is not confined to medical expenses alone. Amputations often lead to short and long-term disability, especially when one's career or job requires the use of ones arms, hands, or legs. The law office of Rourke & Blumenthal works with economists, occupational specialists, and life care planners in projecting the costs associated with amputation injuries.

We understand the costs amputees face and what legal steps must be taken to establish a compelling case for jurors. For an experienced, effective legal team prepared with medical and financial experts of every kind, contact the law office of Rourke & Blumenthal today.
