Every year millions of people become innocent victims of crime. Thousands are affected by violent crime including physical attack, mugging and sexual assault. This can cause devastation for the victim and the victim’s family. Even if the attacker is not identified and/or found and/or charged, a successful compensation claim may be made to the Government under the Criminal Injury Compensation Scheme. The Scheme pays compensation to innocent victims of violent crime who have received injury, together with certain losses and expenses. Our dedicated team of specialists can guide you through a claim for compensation.
Time limits apply to making a claim so make sure you contact us as soon as possible for advice. Our Personal Injury Team has handled thousands of successful cases on behalf of those injured in this type of accident.
For example, Mr C was blinded in one eye when he was the victim of an unprovoked assault. Poole Townsend made an application to the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority on his behalf and Mr C was awarded over £20,000.00 in compensation.
