Has negligent or reckless behavior resulted in amputation?
At Brasher Law Firm, PLLC, our Beaumont personal injury lawyers know that losing a limb is one of the most devastating and life-changing injuries a person could suffer. An amputation can impact your ability to do your job, perform routine tasks, take part in recreational activities, and live your everyday life.

Consequences of Losing a Limb
The costs of treating an amputation are unique from most other injuries. Losing a limb means a permanent, drastic change to your lifestyle that requires expensive and time-consuming treatments for rehabilitation. It also requires specialized care, equipment, and possible construction in order to accommodate your altered ability to carry out everyday tasks.
Expenses for a loss of limb can include:
- Costs of initial medical attention, including possible surgery
- Physical rehabilitation to learn how to cope with the dramatic change to physical capabilities
- Prosthetics, including purchase and maintenance
- Wheelchairs or other forms of walking support
- Alterations to your home or vehicle that are necessary for daily functions, such as ramps or other aids
- Psychological trauma such as depression or altered self-perception
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of wages due to either a temporary or permanent inability to work
- Vocational rehabilitation
- Training for change of vocation that may be necessary due to amputation

Testimonials
After I was hurt on the job, my company tried to keep me from filing worker’s compensation. Instead, they offered to pay me cash. They told me not to file a worker’s compensation claim – that they would take care of me. When I went a got an MRI on my own, they fired me. Clint Brasher took my case all the way to trial. My employer offered a $25,000.00 right before trial to settle the case. Clint said no and convinced a jury to award me $852,000.00 plus interest. I recommend anyone with a legal problem to call The Brasher Law Firm.
Jimmy Couch Jr.Beaumont, Texas
I was scared to death after being on the witness stand for several hours. Clint Brasher kept reassuring me but, when we broke the trial for the day and I was offered $100,000.00, I wanted to take it. Clint advised me not to and that we would do better with the jury. While it was hard, I followed his advice. The verdict the next day was for $240,000.00 plus interest. I recommend anyone with a legal problem to call Clint Brasher. He was not only a skillful advocate, he was a friend to me during this difficult time.
