Witness Support Jersey

The Witness Service was set up in Jersey in 2008 to support anyone who has to go to court as a victim or witness, regardless of whether they are a witness for the defence or prosecution.

The Witness Service in Jersey helps:

witnesses who are called to give evidence, including defence witnesses
victims of crime and their families and friends attending court for any reason
children as well as adults

The service provided also offers:

someone to talk to in confidence
a visit to the court to look around the courtroom before the trial
a DVD explaining the court process and personnel and showing how the trial will proceed
information on court procedures
a quiet place for you to wait before and during the trial
someone to accompany you into the court room when you give evidence
someone to be there afterwards to talk over what happened
practical help, for example with expense forms
to put you in touch with people who can answer specific questions about your case (the Witness Service cannot discuss evidence or offer legal advice)
ongoing support, even after the case is over
