If you have been the victim of a criminal assault and sustained injury, you may be entitled to compensation via the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA).

Essentially, the Authority is responsible for providing compensation to victims injured as a result of crime in England.

The CICA can award anything from a minimum of £1000 up to £500,000. It is useful to note that compensation can be awarded even if the offender is not convicted or apprehended for the crime.

It is important to know that there are strict time limits on bringing a claim against the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority and the normal three year rule does not apply.

There are also strict criteria which must be satisfied in order for you to be eligible for an award and therefore, you should seek immediate advice from one of our qualified solicitors.

However, whatever the circumstances of your claim, we at J S Miller are here to listen and do what we can to achieve justice and provide support to you whether we simply answer a few questions you may have or assist you in dealing with a full claim for compensation.
