This condition causes ringing in the ears and can be debilitating. Our team at What’s My Claim Worth secured private funding for our client to have Tinnitus Retraining Therapy which was completed before settlement was achieved. Unfortunately this offered little help for our client and we successfully recovered £35,000 for his injuries.
Our client was a passenger who was left with permanent tinnitus following a road traffic accident. Allison Pepper, one of our specialist solicitors was instructed to deal with the claim and submitted the claim to the Defendant’s Insurers. Liability was admitted very early by the Defendant’s Insurers and thankfully our client only suffered short-lived physical injury to his neck but continued to suffer from tinnitus. We proceeded to obtain medical evidence from an ENT Expert (Ear, Nose and Throat) and also from a General Practitioner. Our client was a manual worker working on building sites but because he suffered significantly in areas where there was a lot of background noise a claim was made because he was now disadvantaged in seeking work.
The claim was successfully concluded without needing to issue court proceedings for an amount which was expected to exceed the amount that would have been received had it been assessed at court.
