Infection HIV/AIDS
Claims

Can I Claim for Compensation?

If you contract an infection such as HIV, Hepatitis B or C, as a result of a crime of violence, you may be able to claim compensation from the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority.

We have a specialist team who are experienced in helping people who have sustained an infection. Our team is trained to listen, understand, support and help you get the results that you need both emotionally and financially.

How can NewLaw help you?

At NewLaw, we are mindful of the impact that recalling experiences and dealing with such circumstances can have. We ensure that any initial discussions that we have are kept to a minimum and that the information is taken at the pace that suits the client. We help people affected by traumatic crimes of this nature and will:

• work with you every step of the way and ensure complete confidentiality;
• offer you the support of our Welfare Managers, who are not solicitors;
• obtain professional help from people that are trained in trauma support, such as social services;
• seek longer term support services if you require them, such as counselling.
