What is a Criminal Injury Claim?

A criminal injury claim is a claim made by a person who has been injured as a result of a violent crime. This includes injuries sustained from assaults, muggings, or other violent acts. In the UK, victims of violent crime may be eligible for compensation through the CICA, which is a government-backed scheme.

Criminal injury claims can arise from a wide range of incidents, including:

  • Assault: Physical attacks such as beating, stabbings, or shootings.
  • Mugging: Robbery or attempted robbery resulting in injury.
  • Domestic Violence: Injuries sustained from domestic abuse.
  • Sexual Assault: Any form of sexual violence or harassment.

Types of Injuries in Criminal Injury Claims

The injuries sustained in criminal incidents can range from minor to life-changing, such as:
