Victims' Rights Rhode Island

Victims' rights are an essential part of our society, ensuring that those who have suffered from crime and abuse receive the justice and support they deserve. Providence, as a state committed to protecting its citizens, has adopted laws that guarantee victims the right to be treated with dignity and respect throughout the criminal justice process. Victims have a right to be notified of their case status and court proceedings; to provide input during court proceedings; access to counseling services; and other forms of assistance. Additionally, victims can seek restitution for losses incurred as a result of the crime they endured.

These important rights are enshrined in the Rhode Island Constitution, which also provides guidance on how these protections should be implemented by law enforcement and judicial officers. Beyond simply providing legal safeguards for victims, Providence is dedicated to education and awareness-raising about victims’ rights issues at all levels of society. This includes regular seminars for law enforcement personnel on how best to handle cases involving victimized individuals, as well as public outreach campaigns aimed at informing citizens about their rights under state law.

Ultimately, it is our hope that these initiatives will help ensure that all individuals affected by crime experience justice and receive appropriate support in Providence. By guaranteeing basic human dignities for victims of crime, we create a more equitable society where everyone feels safe—and this starts with understanding and respecting each person’s right to protection from harm.

I would recommend Parker Lipman and Dan Lipman specifically to anyone with a personal injury or malpractice claim--and we decided together not to pursue my claim! Dan spoke with me for over an hour, clearly explaining all the costs, risks, and potential benefits involved. Without trying to talk me into anything, it became clear from our discussion that the costs and risks to me personally of bringing my claim greatly outweighed the potential recovery -- bringing a claim was not be in my best interest. His advice was invaluable, and I was so happy that I spoke with him. I can now move on with my life knowing that I properly pursued my legal options. Dan is empathetic, reasonable, humble, and clearly an expert. I'm a lawyer , but I learned so much from our conversation. Most important - he is ethical and honest! He clearly tells it like it is - what clients need to hear not just what they want to hear!

Professionally, I work with a large percentage of the Personal Injury attorneys in Colorado. Every single one of them knows, respects, trusts, and speaks highly of, Dan and Lorraine. They both have decades of experience, are leaders in the field of law, and, most importantly, are not afraid to go to trial to fight on behalf of their clients. If I ever had a case that needed attention, Dan and Lorraine would be my first call, because I know that I can trust them.

No response to my Online Inquiry Request. No responses to my 2 phone calls + A virtual Wake-Up call I've made this early morning. They do listen to your story and mention that they will call you back...what NEVER happened in my case. Until ->I

Got referred to this place by 3 different attorneys. I spoke with Evelyn who isn't even an attorney who gave me the run around and improper information on 3 different occasions. (I believe I spoke with her 6 months ago as well - where she discouraged me. I did what she said and got insurance and a Dr) Said she was going to call back and never did.The Dr who messed my life up works with professional athletes like Roger Federer, Serena Williams and USWNT players.

Excellent team of attorneys. They are extremely detailed and listen to your concerns and questions. It's clear their main concern is your well being and ensuring your case is thoroughly handled, not simply processed so they can move on to the next client. An outstanding law firm!
