Personal Injury Attorney connects victims with Idaho Crime Victim Compensation Program

BOISE, Idaho - April 5, 2022 - PRLog -- Jacobson & Jacobson, attorneys at law, completed a personal injury matter in which their client's vehicle was hit head-on by a drunk driver. All three victims in the car were represented by the local attorney's office, one of which was a minor.

The clients received relatively minor injuries but still required emergency transport in an ambulance, chiropractic care, and physical therapy. Because the clients were victims of a drunk driving crime, the office of Jacobson & Jacobson helped them connect with the Idaho Crime Victim Compensation Program, which helped pay for parts of their medical treatment and even a portion of their attorney's fees.

Idaho Crime Victim Compensation Program
The Idaho CVCP was established in 1986 for victims of crimes with costs related to injuries sustained as the result of those crimes. They ensure eligible victims are provided with appropriate financial assistance to aid in their recovery.
