Applications for compensation are determined mostly on the papers in a non-adversarial fashion without the need for a hearing so as to reduce the instances of re-traumatisation of victims.
Applications for recovery are determined in Compensation Recovery Order hearings where offenders are invited to participate in the hearing and recovery process.
To lodge an application, please use the eCourts Portal or see the Lodging an Application page on the website.

The Centre for Women’s Safety and Wellbeing is committed to working alongside Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women and men to end violence against their women and children in Western Australia.
The Centre for Women’s Safety and Wellbeing acknowledges the strength and resilience of adults, children and young people who have experienced family and domestic violence. We pay respects to those who did not survive and acknowledge the families, friends and communities who have lost loved ones to this preventable and widespread issue. We are committed to ensuring responses to family and domestic violence are informed by lived experience.
The Centre for Women’s Safety and Wellbeing recognises, welcomes and respects people of diverse gender, sex and sexuality. We are committed to greater inclusion of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex and queer people (LGBTIQ).
