Nottingham Deafness Claims Solicitors

Noise at work can cause hearing loss and tinnitus

Hearing loss and tinnitus (buzzing in the ears) due to noise exposure can be very distressing and can interfere significantly with the quality of life of the sufferer.

These conditions often develop over time - and are not noticed for many years after exposure - e.g. when the volume of the television has to be raised, conversations are difficult to follow and the sufferer is accused of not paying attention!

Unfortunately both conditions are permanent and irreversible - but you may well be entitled to compensation.

Date of knowledge

Employers have known since 1963 at the latest that excessive noise exposure can cause hearing loss, and so any exposure after that date may give rise to a claim. In addition, the Court of Appeal has recently ruled that lower noise thresholds can make the workplace unsafe and thus give rise to a claim.

No win no fee - 100% damages

Most claims can be funded at no cost to you by a "no win no fee" agreement, and you will keep 100% of the damages recovered.

What our Clients Say:

"John's work was excellent, I would recommend people to seek John's help without any reservations.  His help and advice was very sound."  Mr Latus, West Midlands

"Having been completely let down by my previous solicitor (who missed a crucial time limit causing a settlement offer to be withdrawn, and then went AWOL), I contacted Paul Davis at Nicholson Davis. Paul promised me 2 things:

a) he would try to win our professional negligence case against my former solicitor;

b) he would try to restore my faith in the legal profession.

Due to his professionalism he has certainly achieved both."  Mr Bass, Lincolnshire

"What can I say, there are no words adequate enough, a plain thank you does not do justice for all you have done in taking what was deemed [by other lawyers] a lost cause and getting such a resounding result."

"I was kept fully informed at every turn. John delivered the outcome I had hoped for within a short space of time. The service was simply first class"

"John is very astute, immediately seeing the way forward, he gave me peace of mind." Mr Granger, Leicestershire

"Nicholson Davis exceeded my expectations, were timely, very professional and I would not hesitate to recommend their service to anyone who finds themselves in need of legal representation." Mr Hobday, Leicestershire

"Paul has the skill and experience to be able to talk and explain each detail in layman's language every step along the way. His guidance through the uncertainty started to assure me I had (although better late than never) engaged someone who was not only was going to fight my corner but, as time evolved, also win my case.

I cannot speak more highly of a true professional who is a credit to his profession. I would not hesitate to recommend Paul to anyone who has to engage in a legal issue and I wish Paul and the rest of the team at Nicholson Davis every success in the future."

"Great from the start. Always rings when he says. Very professional. Knows what he is talking about. I would use Nicholson Davis again and would definitely recommend Nicholson Davis." Miss Briggs, Lancashire

"After speaking to several other solicitors before Nicholson Davis, I was very impressed in our initial telephone conversation. John digested the material very quickly and effectively. He understood the information without diagrams very quickly. He didn´t need to keep going over the same thing." Dr Partington, Hertfordshire

"We had high hopes as we had been recommended to use Nicholson Davis. We were very impressed. John knows his job and his areas of law. He handled our case perfectly. We were kept informed, with quick responses." Mrs Watson, Norfolk

"We were very very pleased. Our previous solicitor had been ineffectual with no personal service. We had far greater confidence in John and felt very reassured. Very good personal service." Ms Mackie, Leicestershire

"Paul was very helpful, explained everything. Thank you!" Mrs Lexster, Bournemouth

"I wasn´t expecting a speedy conclusion to my claim, but with your firm my claim was dealt with quickly, efficiently and to a high standard. Everything exceeded my expectations." Miss Azam, West Yorkshire

"I was very worried about using a solicitor. Now I am more than happy. Nicholson Davis let me know everything that was going on. I would definitely recommend them." Mrs Plahktienko, London

"Paul, my sincerest thanks to you again, can't tell you how grateful I am. You have done a super job and I will of course recommend you...." Miss King, Leicestershire

"We are very pleased with the service that you (Paul) provided me and will happily recommend you in future." Mr and Mrs Deans
