Terrorist attack compensation claims

Terrorist attack lawyers

The threat of terrorism is becoming an increasing concern to all of us. In particular the bombings in London on July 7th 2005 brought the issue of terrorism to the fore, and there have been several high profile compensation cases in the wake of those events.

Claims for injury and trauma suffered as a result of terrorist attacks are subject to a developing legal process that we can help you to follow. As always, we’ll work sensitively with you through the practical and emotional effects of such an event, at the same time pursuing the highest compensation settlement possible.

We’re experts in terrorist attack compensation claims

Claims for attacks in the UK are administered by the state via the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA) and our specialist team has considerable experience, working on behalf of claimants involved in the Lockerbie flight bombing, the World Trade Centre attacks and the London attacks. We can also advise you and represent you in claiming compensation for attacks aboard, using our trusted international network of solicitors and our extensive knowledge of international law.

About terrorist attack compensation claims

We may have seen plenty of resilience from London residents after the July 2005 attacks, but for victims and their families, the practical and emotional issues following an attack can be daunting and traumatic. The physical and psychological ordeal suffered together with long term disability issues, healthcare costs and loss of earnings must all be taken account of in any settlement. In addition, compensation may be available to those who are left bereaved by terrorist attacks.

International terrorism can also affect British nationals aboard. Attacks in popular holiday destinations such as Bali and Egypt underline the risks we all face across the world. At present, the CICA does not grant compensation to those injured in attacks aboard, but we can investigate the possibility of pursuing a potential claim in the country where the attack occurred, so do seek our help.
