Get The Justice You Deserve.
Key Takeaways
- Amputation and loss-of-use injuries cause profound physical, emotional, and financial challenges, often leaving victims unable to return to work or perform daily tasks.
- Complications such as phantom limb pain, psychological trauma, and the lifelong need for fitting, maintenance, and replacement of prosthetic devices require substantial long-term financial support.
- Insurance companies frequently try to cap settlements by restricting access to modern prosthetics or underestimating the lifetime frequency of prosthetic replacements.
- Common causes of traumatic amputations include car, truck, and motorcycle collisions, construction site accidents, and dangerous or defective products.
- An experienced San Francisco amputation injury attorney works on a contingency fee basis to accurately project long-term care needs and pursue maximum compensation from liable parties.

Our firm has been helping injured victims for more than 70 years. We are one of the most prestigious personal injury law firms in San Francisco and are led by a team of experienced, assertive, and skilled trial lawyers.
Advocates For Victims Of Serious, Life-Altering Injuries
Catastrophic injuries such as burns, spinal cord injuries and amputations directly impact the victim’s ability to complete day-to-day activities. An amputation can prevent you from returning to work and providing for your family. Amputation/loss of use victims often struggle with physical pain known as “phantom pains,” as well as emotional and psychological trauma. We have represented people suffering from amputations as the result of:
- Car accidents
- Truck accidents
- Motorcycle accidents
- Construction site accidents
- Dangerous or defective products
Amputations also require the need for prosthetic devices to replace the missing limb. Most insurance companies try to restrict both the kinds of prosthetics available to victims and the number of replacement prosthetics an individual may require over the course of his or her life. Our San Francisco Amputations Lawyers at The Cartwright Law Firm make sure to include this issue in all dealings with insurance companies that are liable for the cost of your injuries.
How We Have Helped
We represented an individual who suffered a foot injury after stepping on a submerged snap tie at a sulfur prilling plant. Given the nature of the injuries and the fact that our client was diabetic, the injury resulted in a likelihood of a leg amputation from the knee down. We were able to recover $1.35 million in a settlement for our client.
Rely On Us
You can count on the lawyers at our firm to represent your interests. We will work to maximize your settlement so you have the financial compensation you need to move forward after the injury. Before settling with the insurance company, contact our lawyers.

I cannot recommend Cartwright Law Firm and Andrew Ratto highly enough. He helped me through a very difficult time in my life and I do not know how I would have managed to get through it without the firm's professional guidance and support.
Everyone at the Cartwright Firm is very likeable. The attorneys and staff are kind, thoughtful, and sincere. They helped walk me through the entire process and were patient when explaining the legal jargon I didn't understand. It is clear they not only really care about your claim, but care about making sure you understand whats going on. Can't recommend them enough!
I worked with the Cartwright law Firm over 20 years ago and on a recent trip to San Francisco I met with Rob and his team of Attorneys for over 2 hours to get an opinion on a legal matter. I was extremely impressed at the professional attitude and real caring I received from their office. Please feel free to watch my VIDEO review vid.us/57pftr
I did not even have to take one step into a court room! I had an amazing experience with Robert Cartwright and his team. They walked me through every step, kept me well informed along the way, and I definitely recommend them to anyone having legal issues.
I recently had a serious altercation with an Uber driver. The Cartwright Law Firm was able to quickly and efficiently evaluate the merits of my case. They are very polite and great to work with. I would recommend The Cartwright Law Firm to any person who needs an experienced, aggressive firm to assist them in their injury case.
They were willing to take my case after being denied by other law firms, and was able to get me a great settlement. I did not event have to take one step in the court room! Highly recommended for any of your legal needs.
The Cartwright Law Firm is very professional and responsive to client needs. I recently had a personal injury case in which David Yen, and an associate from their firm, was able to obtain a fabulous result for me, and I never even had to step into the court room. Thank you again The Cartwright Law Firm!
