If you’ve been exposed to excessive levels of noise in the course of your employment, and have difficulty with your hearing, you may be entitled to claim compensation.
Many jobs and workplaces require employees to work in environments where noise levels and patterns are potentially hazardous to hearing. As stated above employers have a responsibility to provide their employees with adequate protection against this noise. If this protection is missing or flawed, the result can be serious and long-lasting damage to hearing and can result in noise induced hearing loss, also referred to as industrial deafness, for which you may claim compensation.
We have been dealing with noise induced hearing loss and tinnitus claims for some time and have considerable expertise in this area. We have pursued claims against the Police, Prison Service and Ministry of Defence on behalf of former and current personnel. We have also successfully pursued claims against employers engaged in manufacturing or other trades that employ noisy processes or use noisy machinery.
If you think you may have a claim for noise induced hearing loss and/or tinnitus please contact us to discuss how to proceed.

We are pleased to announce that we are once again participating in Will Aid.
We will waive our fee for drawing up a basic Will and instead invite our clients to donate to the Will Aid group of charities. The suggested minimum donation is £95 for a single basic Will and £150 for mirror Wills.
The money raised is shared by the nine Will Aid charities and is used to transform the lives of people in the UK and around the world.
Will Aid has raised over £15 million since its launch over 25 years ago and an estimated £95 million has been pledged as legacies by people making their Will through the scheme. The campaign is proud to have helped more than 275,000 people to write a proper Will with a professional solicitor.
Having an up to date and properly written Will is the only way to be sure that your money and possessions will be distributed according to your wishes. It is also the only certain way to avoid difficulties for your relatives and friends after your death. By making a Will with Will Aid you will be protecting your loved ones’ future and helping to raise money to support the vital work of the Will Aid charities.
Full details of how it works can be found by clicking here or clicking on the Will Aid logo above.
