## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Victims of Crime Support & Compensation](https://ailawframework.com/practice/victims-of-crime-support-and-compensation.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | From the police, health or support-service report the lawyer marks, record who reported the violence, the date, the agency, and the victim description the lawyer has already chosen. Do not decide which description applies and do not write the explanation for a late application. |
| What the lawyer must review | The lawyer decides which victim description applies, whether the report meets the path for that description, and whether an older matter also needs a conviction or one of the other conditions on the page. |

## Checking plan

**Source-by-source verification**

Record the report that is on the file and leave the victim description to the lawyer.

- What the AI does: From the police, health or support-service report the lawyer marks, record who reported the violence, the date, the agency, and the victim description the lawyer has already chosen. Do not decide which description applies and do not write the explanation for a late application.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer decides which victim description applies, whether the report meets the path for that description, and whether an older matter also needs a conviction or one of the other conditions on the page.
- Who reviews: Responsible lawyer with competence in the matter
- Basis: Practical workflow informed by the linked primary sources; the traffic light and working checks are editorial guidance, not a scheme classification.
- Why: The level reflects what the work is, the consequence of an error, and how much of the output the lawyer must independently re-derive.

## Checks the lawyer makes

1. Check the date, agency and reporter against the report named in the row.
2. Confirm the victim description is the one the lawyer marked, not one chosen in the table.
3. Confirm the row does not contain an explanation for lodging outside time.

## Notes

- These are suggested working checks. Confirm the required checking with the responsible lawyer before work starts; the checking approach does not establish permission to use AI.
- The guide's time-limit and special-circumstances list is already used in the separate task for more time. It is not rebuilt here. A Queensland merits-review forum was not on the page.
