Liability Risk and Insurance
Damages for finger amputation after car crash
A student badly injured in a car crash has received a settlement of £13,000. He had to have partial amputation of his little
finger and ring finger on his left hand following the accident. He was a passenger in a car which flipped over when it hit
an embankment near his home. His fingers were broken and he suffered a serious cut to his head. He later needed surgery to
remove part of his fingers.
