Compensation

[RICHIED84]

does anyone know anything about compensation and rough amounts?

[ummmm]

Rough amounts for what?

[Barmaid]

Yes, compensation for what? If this is in relation to your previous post, only a solicitor can really advise you.

You *might* be awarded compensation by a criminal court for assault, but this is unlikely to be much. If you went down the civil route, there is LOTS more information required (type of injury, duration of injury, prognosis, loss of earnings, impact on the job market etc) and far more than could be dealt with on here.

Relates to this I think

[RICHIED84]

yes it is relation to the last post! are there any no win no fee agencies that deal with assault?

[Barmaid]

You can try googling for a no win no fee type organisation, but I would suggest your best bet is to look locally and see if a solicitor would give you a steer in the right direction.

It might also be worth looking on the Criminal Injuries Compensation Board website.

The Criminal Injuries Compensation Board route would probably be far less hassle than any direct civil action by you.

[ummmm]

But you won't get much for a swollen face...

Does the criminal injuries board deal with homelessness and unproven loss of earnings?

[RICHIED84]

HAHA EARNINGS ARE NOT UNPROVEN AND HOMELESSNESS WAS DUE TO THE ASSUALT AND ALSO EMOTIONAL INJURIES FAR OUT RUN THE TIME TAKEN FOR SWELLING TO HEEL! IM BEING DELT WITH NOW SO MANY THANKS FOR THE ANSWERS

[lcg]

have you beem to your local housing department to seek help for homelessness and to report you were illegally evicted? in england, a housing authority would be interested in helping to prosecute any landlord who evicted someone in this way. any more details on how/why you were evicted and what type of tenancy you had? and what about all your stuff etc? more info would help.

[ummmm]

In the previous thread you said "i was to scare to return to my property and had to abondon a business a had recently set up!"

If your business was recently set up then how are you going to prove your earnings?

And there's no need to shout!

[RICHIED84]

I TOOK MOST OF MY STUFF BUT RETURNED FOR THE REST TO FIND IT HAD BEEN BINNED! ALSO I ENDED UP MOVING BACK TO MY FAMILY IN SPAIN AS I WAS TOLD THE ONLY ACCOMODATION WOULD BE A HOMELESS UNIT WHICH I DID NOT FANCY AS I HAD VERY VALUBLE ITEMS! I STORED MY STUFF SOMEWHERE UNTILL MY FLIGHT! I WAS NEVER CONTACTED UNTIL RECENTLY WHEN I FOUND OUT I WAS SUMMONED TO COURT!
