If you’ve suffered an injury as a result of a violent crime or reckless act, you may be eligible for compensation through the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA) scheme. At GLP Solicitors, we specialise in helping victims of criminal injuries and road-related violence secure the compensation they deserve, with compassion and expert legal support.
What is a CICA Claim?
A CICA claim is a government-backed compensation process for innocent victims of crime. The scheme provides financial compensation to people who’ve experienced physical or psychological harm due to:
- Assaults and attacks
- Criminal road incidents (e.g., hit-and-run)
- Knife crime or gun violence
- Sexual assaults or abuse
- Injury while trying to stop a crime or assist police
Even if no one is charged or convicted, you may still qualify for a criminal injury compensation award.
