Criminal Injuries Compensation
If you have been a victim of assault you may be entitled to compensation. Criminal injury claims will involve being injured during an assault or any other form of crime.
The Accident Claimline have a solicitor on hand who specialises in these cases do give us a call today and discuss the incident with us.
The compensation for these claims comes from the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA) who are a government body that was set up to help compensate victims of crime.
The CICA can determine if you are eligible for compensation through the scheme by following a set process and criteria. Basic Criteria would be:
- The incident happened within the last 2 years (unlike other accident claims the time limit for these claims is shorter)
- It was reported to the police as soon as reasonably possible
- Your injuries need to meet the minimum award of £1000 (we can assess this for you in the first call)
These assaults not only bring severe physical injuries but psychological injuries too, both of these will be assessed by the solicitor.
The solicitor is experienced in handling these claims taking away any added stress of the CICA scheme and paperwork.
