Arms
Compensation for arm injuries relate to the degree of loss of use and vary greatly as follows.
Amputation
The value of this award depends on whether both arms are lost (£154,000 - £191,500) or just one arm. If one arm is lost, the award varies depending on whether amputation occurs at the shoulder (not less than £87,500), above the elbow (£70,000 - £83,500) or below the elbow (£61,500 - £70,000).
Other Arm Injuries
These types of injuries vary from "Severe" (£61,500 - £83,500) which means that although the arm was not amputated, the loss of use is almost as bad as if it had been, to "Simple Fractures" (£4,250 - £12,250).
