Criminal injury claims - obtaining compensation from the CICA

Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA)

If you have been the victim of an assault or criminal related injury you will have suffered harm both physically and emotionally as a result of your ordeal. Such trauma can be very difficult to overcome and it is entirely appropriate that you should seek compensation.

Fortunately in the UK we have a system in place to deal with claims from the innocent victims of crime. CICA claims Frequently Asked Questions - FAQ  

The Criminal Injury Compensation Authority (CICA for short) is responsible for administering the Criminal Injuries Compensation Scheme throughout England, Scotland and Wales.

They pay compensation to eligible applicants who have been the victim of a violent crime. The amount awarded depends very much on the nature of the injuries suffered. However as part of our specialist service Winston Solicitors aim to push for the best possible settlement for our clients.  

Many thousands of people are injured in CRIMINAL ACTS each year. If you are an innocent victim of crime and suffer harm, you may well be ale to claim compensation.  

We help people obtain rightful compensation and offer our service nationwide.   Who can claim? If you have been injured because of a violent crime, you can apply. If you are the relative of a person who died because of their injuries, then you may be able to apply for compensation. Important: Your claim must be made within 2 years of the injury being sustained. It is very important that there is a medical record of the injury and that the matter was reported to the police.
