CICA case examples...In this section we discuss a number of criminal injury cases that we have dealt with recently The intention is to illustrate the type of claims that we can actively deal with whilst demonstrating the compensation levels that can be achieved with our expertise. The following are summarised "real life" cases:
In this case our client was inside a bank making a deposit when she was confronted by an armed robber who was making his way to the counter. She was forced to sit on the floor whilst the robber shouted demands at the staff. She was also threatened and had a gun pointed at her during the ordeal. The claimant - whilst not physically injured, suffered psychologically from the accident for a period of more than two years. She received £8600 in compensation from the CICA
The claimant in this case was walking down a busy high street when he was singled out by a group of football fans. Despite having no football scarf or strip to identify him he was accused of being a supporter of a rival team and was set upon. He was beaten quite badly and suffered a broken wrist, severe bruising and concussion. With our help he was awarded £3400 in compensation form the CICA.
The victim here was a rugby player who was attacked whilst playing against a lower ranked local team. On opposition player who he did not know and had not encountered previously on the field of play, struck a blow to his face that broke his jaw. The incident occurred off the ball and was deemed by witnesses to be unprovoked. Despite the fact that the claimant was playing a physical sport, the injuries suffered were solely as a result of malicious wounding and nothing at all to do with the general rough and tumble of a rugby match. The police pressed charges against the assailant and we dealt with the compensation claim under the CICA scheme. The claimant recovered £3750 in compensation.
