Criminal Injury Claims

Posted by admin on Jun 10th, 2009 | no comments

Criminal injury claims are administered by the Criminal Injury Compensation Authority ( CICA ). The CICA awards compensation to individuals who have suffered injury due to a criminal act, perhaps an assault, stabbing, rape etc. We represent individuals who would like to make a criminal injury claim. These types of claims are operated on a no-win, no-fee basis. We will explain the fixed fee arrangement at the start of your case.

Please telephone us on freephone 0800 169 3683 for advice on how to proceed with this type of claim.  In normal circumstances, criminal injury claims have to be brought within two years of the incident. The claimant should have reported the matter to the police and of course, sought medical treatment. Also, the claimant should have assisted the police/CPS in the prosecution of the assailant. It is not necessary to have identified the person who injured you, although, if you do know the assailant, then you should tell the police.

We can deal with criminal injury compensation claims throughout the UK; England, Wales and Scotland. Whatever your criminal injury, give us a ring. We can get your criminal injury claim started right here, right now.
