Expertise And Understanding From Irwin Mitchell
At Irwin Mitchell we have a great deal of experience in handling industrial deafness claims, which have resulted from noise induced hearing loss (NIHL). We have successfully represented a number of clients, securing compensation for those who have suffered as the result of NIHL.
There are many types of workplace where employees are subjected to high levels of noise, which can be hazardous to your hearing. Employers are legally required to meet stringent health and safety procedures and provide employees with adequate protection against loud noise.
When employers fail in these duties, Irwin Mitchell can help you to make a claim for NIHL compensation, using our expertise to secure the best possible outcome for you.
Handling NIHL Claims With Dedication And Sensitivity
As we age it is expected that we experience a certain level of deteriorated hearing, however if you have been exposed to excessive levels of noise in your workplace, this could have contributed to your hearing loss.
The severity of the NIHL can differ from person to person, dependent on the amount of time you were exposed for and to what level of noise. Exposure to loud noise on a daily basis can result in severe nerve damage and some will be affected more than others.
If you find yourself turning up the TV and struggling to hear others, you may be affected by NIHL. You may also be affected by a continuous ringing in your ears, otherwise known as tinnitus.
Our dedicated industrial deafness solicitors understand the complexities surrounding NIHL claims and we will thoroughly explore your hearing loss to ensure that you receive the right amount of compensation for your injuries.
If you believe you have been exposed to high levels of noise during your employment and are suffering from NIHL as a result, you may be able to make a claim.
We offer professional support and advice throughout your claim and above all, we put you first.
