    Victims & family protection

    We represent victims before relevant authorities, including the police, the Public Prosecution, and courts at all levels. Our goal is to pursue justice against perpetrators of crimes and to support the principle of the rule of law.

    In certain criminal cases, it is insufficient to rely solely on the competent authorities to initiate prosecution and deliver justice to victims. Victims must also take proactive measures to assist the police and judicial agencies in holding perpetrators accountable.

    In this regard, we work diligently to represent our clients and achieve their legal objectives in coordination with the relevant authorities, including the police, the Public Prosecution, and the criminal courts. Our legal representation of victims involves the following procedures, tailored to each individual case:

    1. Providing Legal Advice: Offering guidance to victims on the appropriate legal steps to take.
    2. Preparing and Drafting Complaints: Drafting and submitting complaints to the competent authorities.
    3. Claiming Compensation: Seeking compensation for damages resulting from criminal acts.
    4. Assisting in the Search for Criminals: Contributing to efforts to locate and bring perpetrators to justice.
    5. Legal Representation: Representing victims before the judiciary, the Public Prosecution, and the police.

    How can we help?

    We represent victims or their representatives, depending on the legal context, to assist them in ensuring that the legally prescribed punishment is imposed on the perpetrator. Additionally, we help in claiming compensation for the losses incurred as a result of the crime.
