    How Much Compensation For Loss of Arm

    Losing a limb or limbs will have an impact on your life and perhaps those around you. Like in other arm injury claims, how much compensation for the loss of an arm will depend on a number of factors.

    The below guide will give you an indication of what you can expect in your own situation if you have lost an arm or arms.

    If there has been an amputation-type injury then settlement fees will be driven by a number of factors. These include:

    • whether or not a joint has been lost;
    • if the lost arm was on the dominant side of the body;
    • what kind of impact this loss has had on your ability to carry on with your current job;
    • how well a prosthetic arm is able to be fitted and function;
    • your age
    • if there are any phantom pains present

    Level of injury

    Potential compensation

    Loss of both arms. (The main influencing factor on the amount is the extent to which an able-bodied person has been reduced to a person with a severe disability) £191,950 up to £239,140
    Loss of arm, amputated at the shoulder in excess of £109,330
    Arm amputated above the elbow. (This considers the fact that the shorter the length of the remaining limb, the more difficulties there can be in fitting prosthetics) £87,410 and £104,370
    Amputation through the elbow £87,410
    Amputation through the forearm with phantom pains £76,650 up to £87,410

    AMOUNT OF COMPENSATION

    All personal injury cases are unique and so the amount of compensation that is awarded in each case is also unique. The amount of compensation that is awarded is determined by looking at two distinct factors – general damages and special damages.

    GENERAL DAMAGES

    The pain and suffering that your injuries have caused is the main factor that is used to determine how much compensation you are owed.

    SPECIAL DAMAGES

    However, compensation also takes into account any financial losses that you might have suffered as a result of your injuries, such as a loss of earnings due to being unable to return to work.

    Except for children, there is a three-year time limit on making a personal injury claim. This time limit begins from the date that the accident occurred. You should contact a personal injury solicitor as soon as possible to assess your case.
