Criminal injury Claims

Crime doesn’t pay. But these days, people injured as a result of a crime of violence can be awarded compensation by The Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority. This is a government scheme set up to ensure such victims of crime can apply for criminal injury compensation.

If you are an innocent victim of a ‘crime of violence’, you can claim full criminal injury compensation, unless:

  • You failed to report the crime or co-operate with police.
  • You were not entirely innocent yourself.

If you have a criminal record, this is likely to lead to a deduction of the damages available through a criminal injury compensation claim.

So if you have been injured, or suffered losses as a result of a ‘crime of violence’, you should contact us via our online enquiry form to receive expert advice from one of our specialist lawyers on making a criminal injury claim.
