Criminal law is the body of law that relates to crime. It proscribes conduct perceived as threatening, harmful, or otherwise endangering to the property, health, safety, and moral welfare of people inclusive of one’s self.

 

If you have suffered sexual, physical or psychological abuse or injury as a result of criminal actions of someone then we can seek compensation even the person committing the act has not been changed or even caught. Remember it is your right to seek compensation for your injuries. Criminal injuries compensation is different than a personal injury claim i.e. the criminal nature. We will claim the injury from the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA) who is a government-run body designed to compensate the victims of crime.
