Other Circumstances

The amount of compensation you can claim or may be awarded can be affected by other circumstances as well. For example, any compensation award may be reduced or declined if you started the fight you were injured in, if you agreed to take part in a fight, or if you deliberately provoked the person who assaulted you.

Any claim for compensation may also be reduced or declined if you have a criminal record.
