How Criminal Injuries Compensation Works in Western Australia

Criminal injuries compensation in Western Australia is provided through a government-run statutory scheme designed to support victims of violent crime. The scheme is not about suing the offender or proving negligence. Instead, it focuses on recognising the harm suffered and providing financial assistance where eligibility criteria are met.

Compensation may take into account factors such as the nature of the injury, medical treatment, psychological impact and ongoing effects on daily life. Strict time limits and procedural requirements may apply, which makes early advice important.

Our role is to explain how the scheme works, assess whether you may be eligible, and guide you through the application process with care and clarity.

Clients choose Lian Hall because we approach criminal injuries compensation matters with sensitivity, discretion and professionalism.

We prioritise your wellbeing and ensure that advice is provided in a way that respects your circumstances.

Do I Need to Report the Crime or Have a Conviction?

In many cases, a criminal conviction is not required to make a criminal injuries compensation claim. While reporting the crime can be relevant, eligibility does not always depend on whether charges were laid or a conviction was secured.

Each situation is different. We can explain how these factors may apply to your circumstances and what options may be available.
