Compensation for bullying in the military

At Bolt Burdon Kemp we act for service men and women who have been bullied by other members of the military while serving at home or abroad.

Unfortunately bullying is not restricted to new recruits. Bullying and harassment is rife throughout the armed forces in an environment that often encourages a feeling of isolation, and is a breeding ground for the culture of abuse. We act for members of the armed forces who have been bullied whilst carrying out their duties whether in this country or abroad. We will advise you about the best way to claim compensation for the abuse you have suffered.

Bullying is unacceptable in the military. It causes damage to the victim, the perpetrator and the services. It is no longer something you are expected to put up with as part of your service.

If you have been bullied and have suffered psychological or physical injury you may have a compensation claim.

The compensation claim could include awards in respect of:

  • Pain and suffering including psychological damage 
  • Medical expenses and prescriptions
  • Loss of earnings
  • Reduced employment prospects
  • Loss of quality of life
  • Loss of out of pocket expenses
  • Cost of care for the past and care for the future
  • Cost of aids and equipment
