The legal system in England and Wales has been around for a long time and is widely respected. But it’s also complicated – particularly if you’ve never come into contact with it before.

South Wales Victim Focus can help you to understand more about the agencies you might come into contact with after you have reported a crime, what happens during the investigation and what happens if you need to attend court. We can also refer you to the Witness Service provided by Citizens Advice who can provide you with advice and support if you have to attend court.
