At Law & More, specialists in victims’ law, we understand how devastating a criminal case can be for victims. As a victim, you often find yourself in a complex legal world, dealing not only with the emotional and practical consequences of the crime, but also with a criminal justice system that is not always accessible.
Your story deserves strong legal representation. At Law & More, we are here to help you at every stage of the criminal justice process. Our specialist victims’ solicitors provide personalised advice and legal support at what can be an emotional and challenging time.
What is Victims’ Justice?
Victim justice is an important part of criminal law that focuses on the rights and protection of victims of crime. While criminal law has traditionally focused on punishing offenders, victim justice gives victims an important voice. It includes
– The right to information: To be informed about the case and its progress;
– Right to be heard: Tell your story at the sentencing hearing through a victim impact statement;
– Right to compensation: seek financial compensation for emotional and material damage.
At Law & More, we can help you exercise these rights effectively and guide you through the often complicated legal process.
