If this is a case arising out of employment, it is governed strictly by workmen's compensation law. All injuries are set forth, as to compensation, in a published statutory schedule. Loss or partial loss of a digit equals a certain amount of dollars. Your best bet is to retain the services of a qualified personal injury or workmen's compensation attorney to make sure that medical bills, temporary total disability, and permanent partial impairment are all fully paid.
