Hearing Loss Claims
Are you suffering from hearing loss?
Permanent hearing damage can be caused by gradual exposure to noises or sudden exposure to an extremely loud noise. Many workplaces such as the transport, mining or construction industries are environments prone to loud noises and loud machinery that can leave employees with hearing related disorders.
Industrial deafness or Noise Induced Hearing Loss (HIHL) is a relatively new concept and, in the past, workplaces never provided employees with, or enforced hearing protection. This has resulted in many industrial workers developing NIHS, many to the point of total deafness.
Hearing loss and other related hearing issues can have a real impact on your quality of life. If you think you are suffering from a work-related hearing issue you should seek legal advice as soon as possible. You may be able to claim compensation for your loss of hearing as well as future or ongoing medical expenses.

You may be responsible for paying for the cost of out of pocket expenses (referred to as disbursements), such as medical reports.
