Amputation Due to Medical Negligence

Losing a limb is life-altering. When that loss could’ve been avoided, when it’s caused by medical negligence, it’s not just devastating, it’s infuriating.

At Marley Solicitors, we fight for victims of medical failures that lead to avoidable amputations. You didn’t choose this. But you can choose to hold them accountable.

What is amputation negligence?

Medical negligence that results in amputation means your limb was lost because of substandard medical care. Whether through delayed diagnosis, botched surgery, or infection mismanagement, it didn’t have to happen, and someone needs to answer for that.

Common causes include:

• Delayed diagnosis of diabetes-related infections
• Failure to treat vascular disease (e.g., PAD) in time
• Compartment syndrome misdiagnosis
• Post-operative infections left untreated
• Surgical errors
• Negligent maternity care (in severe fetal cases)

Do you have a claim?

Ask yourself:

• Was the amputation avoidable with timely or proper treatment?
• Were there red flags that were ignored or dismissed?
• Was there a delay in diagnosing or treating an infection or condition?
• Were you kept in the dark or given misleading information?

If you’re nodding yes, you may have a strong claim. We’ll give you an honest, no-obligation assessment, fast.

The true cost of amputation

This isn’t just about physical loss. It impacts everything:

• Your independence
• Your ability to work
• Your mental health
• Your relationships
• Your finances

The law allows you to claim for:

• Pain and suffering
• Prosthetics and equipment
• Home adaptations
• On-going rehabilitation and therapy
• Loss of income
• Psychological trauma

And you should, because this wasn’t your fault.
