Have you or a relative been diagnosed with an asbestos related illness?
There are a number of asbestos-related illnesses including asbestosis, pleural thickening, mesothelioma and lung cancer.
If you have been told that you or they are suffering from any one of these illnesses, you may be entitled to claim compensation from any party responsible for you or your relative’s exposure to asbestos. If the party responsible for the exposure is no longer trading you may still be able to recover damages.
Macks’ specialist Asbestos department will do their very best to identify the relevant insurance companies and pursue a claim on your behalf.
In those cases where it proves impossible to find the insurance company, we may be able to recover compensation for you or your relative under the Government’s Pneumoconiosis Scheme.

Injuries (physical and psychological)

Are you suffering from noise-induced deafness/tinnitus?
It has long been recognised that excessive exposure to workplace noise can cause deafness/tinnitus (ringing in the ears).
One of the primary causes of tinnitus is trauma to the cochlea, in the ear, from loud noises or accidents which cause hair cell damage. When the hairs in the cochlea are damaged, bent or broken, they move randomly in a constant state of irritation. Unable to hold their charge, the auditory cells "leak" random electrical impulses to the brain as noise - which causes tinnitus.
Damage to the inner ear can result from excessive exposure to loud sound. It may be that you have been forced to work in a noisy environment without the appropriate ear protection. Perhaps your employer has required you to use machinery or equipment which was just too loud for safety.
Whatever the cause of the damage there is no doubt that hearing damage can have a serious effect on your quality of life. Macks’ specialist Industrial Deafness Department has the expertise and experience to obtain compensation for you if you have suffered from noise-induced deafness/tinnitus.
On your behalf Macks will recover compensation for your:
Injuries (physical and psychological)
Loss of earnings
Disadvantage on the labour market
Private medical treatment
Other financial losses
