£20,000 increase in CICA settlement for client A

We were contacted by client A, who had been abused as a child by a family member. The client had submitted a CICA application, receiving an initial settlement offer of £3000.

The abuse compensation solicitors at Farleys took on the client's case at this point, initially obtaining an increased offer of £14,000. On the basis of our advice, this offer was rejected, and on appeal, an award of £23,000 was obtained for client A.

£65,000 award for childhood abuse by neighbour

Farleys acted on behalf of a client who suffered historic child abuse at the age of 8 at the hands of a neighbour. The perpetrator was located and it was established that he would be financially able to compensate our client.

An award of £65,000 was secured for the client as a result of the pain and suffering she had experienced some 15 years earlier and the long term effects the abuse had had on her future career prospects. The client hopes that this compensation can go some way in assisting her to finally close that chapter of her life.
