Recent developments in the operation of the Criminal Injuries Compensation Tribunal are expected to bring positive changes to how applications are prepared, assessed, and progressed.

For solicitors advising clients in this area, understanding these developments is essential. In this webinar, solicitor and member of the CICT, Martin Lawlor provides us with a practical overview of what has changed, what may change next, and how practitioners can adapt their approach to ensure applications are managed effectively.

During this session, Martin discusses:

• The key findings and recommendations from the recent Law Reform Commission report

• The current framework of the Criminal Injuries Compensation Tribunal and how it operates in practice

• Proposed changes to eligibility, assessment, and procedural requirements

• Common challenges encountered in Tribunal applications—and how these developments may address them

• Practical steps solicitors can take now to prepare for potential changes

• The likely impact on clients and case strategy moving forward
