victims compensation

Victims' compensation is a legal process that provides financial support to individuals who have suffered harm or loss due to crime or violent incidents. It aims to help cover expenses like medical bills, lost wages, counseling, or other damages resulting from the crime. Typically administered by a government agency, it operates independently of the criminal justice system, ensuring victims receive support regardless of the offender’s prosecution status. The goal is to help victims recover financially and emotionally from their trauma, recognizing their suffering and promoting their well-being.
