Claiming for expenses and lost earnings
If you have spent money on your travel to court or taken time off work and lost pay, you are entitled to make a limited claim. Please use the relevant witness expenses form below. It has guidance notes explaining what you can include in your claim.
Please note that the court does not pay for taxi fares, except for disabled witnesses. If you have a very long journey to court (more than 3 hours or so), call us in advance to discuss arranging hotel accommodation for the night before the hearing.
If you have any further questions, or if you would like to arrange a familiarisation visit to see the courtroom, please contact the office.
