How long do I have to make a sexual abuse compensation claim?

The CICA’s normal time limit is two years from the date you reported the crime to the police.

If the assault happened when you were a child, or if trauma delayed your ability to come forward, this time limit can often be extended.

Winston Solicitors will help you show why your sexual abuse claim should still be accepted.

I cannot recommend Stacey Flegg highly enough. Having had a terrible experience with a previous solicitor firm that left me feeling hopeless, working with Stacey was a complete breath of fresh air. She is truly trauma-informed, deeply aware, and handles delicate matters with the utmost care and professionalism. Throughout my case, she has been incredibly informative, patient, and helpful at every turn. Beyond her legal sharpness in handling my case, her responsiveness is unmatched, she responds almost immediately to any query and gave me total confidence in my claim again. Any updates are provided promptly. Stacey is a remarkable, trustworthy professional who genuinely cares about her clients and is prepared to genuinely help fight their corner, putting a good case forward and keeping you informed every step.
