Victims of crime, such as victims of an armed robbery at a workplace, are entitled to seek financial compensation through the state government under the VOCA Act. For example, the average amount of financial compensation given to the victim of an armed robbery in Victoria is around $3,300.00. We assist victims to access this compensation and there is no cost whatsoever to the victim and the complete process usually involves one appointment only. Often victims of an armed robbery do not wish to make a Workcover claim for various reasons and making a crime compensation application often allows the victim to address any out of pocket expenses they may have occurred, such as time off work and medical or pharmaceutical expenses, together with validating their experience of trauma and aiding in recovery.

Kindly contact us on 1800 000 055 as quickly as possible following an armed robbery to access assistance.
