GA Solicitors

This week, BBC News reported on an agreement reached in the High Court regarding the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) and its many military noise-induced hearing loss claims. This new agreement is a welcome victory for the thousands of acting personnel and veterans who have suffered hearing loss. These claims are to determine the level of compensation due to the veterans.  At GA we have significant experience in supporting serving and former military personnel with making claims for hearing loss following exposure whilst serving in the military. We act on a no-win, no-fee basis ensuring all can have access to justice. We are also a proud signatory of the Plymouth Armed Forces Covenant and strive to support all serving and ex-military personnel. https://lnkd.in/d6x5NJz7 #armedforces #hearingloss #MIHL

In family law, a fact-finding hearing allows the court to consider allegations (and any supporting evidence) made by one or both parties. The court will listen to the evidence and consider ‘on the balance of probabilities’ whether they believe that the allegations are more likely than not to have happened. These hearings are most common during children's law cases and can be both complex and serious. Family paralegal, Lauren Walker, advises on the process, here: https://buff.ly/4cssGL0
