If you have experienced high-pitched ringing, buzzing, or humming sounds in your ears, you may be suffering from tinnitus. It can be the result of exposure to loud noises or acoustic shock in the workplace. If the tinnitus was caused by the negligence of someone else, you may have grounds for a compensation claim. To discuss the possibility of litigation and a settlement with payout, contact us at Eldred Law today. Phone 0800 368 9401 for details on how we can help you get what you deserve.
How Can I Claim Compensation For Tinnitus?
If you were exposed to loud noises without proper hearing protection on your current job or a previous one, you may want to seek compensation. Tinnitus can also be caused by experiencing a motor vehicle accident which was accompanied by an unexpected loud noise or through the use of faulty hearing equipment. If you are hearing sounds that do not disappear or that disturb you in any way, you could have tinnitus.
How Long Do I Have To Make A Tinnitus Claim?
You have a three-year timeframe to work with when considering a tinnitus compensation claim. That is three years from the moment you have been diagnosed with the condition. A visit to your medical professional can verify if your hearing problems are from tinnitus or an ear infection or other cause. For assistance with your claim, contact our team of lawyers who can advise you on the proper route to take to seek assistance. Call our solicitors at Eldred Law for information. Contact us today at 0800 368 9401.
How Much Compensation Will My Claim Bring?
Some factors will impact the size of your settlement. They include:
– How serious the injury is
– Your earning loss (current and future)
– The amount of medical/travel expenses you have incurred
– How much care and support you need (current and future).
While each of these factors will influence the outcome of your claim, we will work to settle it so that you are taken care of now and in the future.
How Long Will My Claim Take?
The same factors that will dictate the size of your settlement will also impact the time required to reach that settlement. It also hinges on whether or not you have started the claim within the three-year window and your current hearing condition. However, we will work as hard as possible to bring you a fast resolution to your situation.
The No Win/No Fee Compensation Claim
The tinnitus claims we handle fall under the category of “no win/no fee” which means that if there is no settlement for your claim, you will not be deducted legal fees. Other funding sources may also be available to you that we can discuss with you as we work on your claim.
