Criminal Injuries Compensation claims

Can any Welfare Rights organisation indicate to us whether they rep at CICB Hearings and if there are any problems with this?

Yes.

Recently obtained a level 23 award (£1/4ml). It was subject to an internal review, which resulted in some difficulty in obtaining all the information on which the award was based and indicated significant inaccuracies.

Par for course for any large body awarding benefits?
