Veterans in payouts for hearing loss
Burton Mail
|April 25, 2026
TWO former servicemen who sued the Ministry of Defence (MoD) for hearing loss suffered during their military careers have been awarded tens of thousands of pounds in damages by a High Court judge.
-
Mr Justice Garnham’s ruling on Friday also laid the foundations for how to assess how much compensation thousands more could receive in their legal claims against the MoD for noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL).
At a 28-day trial last year, two “test cases” were used to set guidelines on diagnosing NIHL and valuing future loss of earnings.
Ex-Royal Marine Christopher Lambie had claimed more than £400,000 in damages, while former Army infantryman Jack Craggs claimed around £61,000.
