Do victims in criminal cases need to hire lawyers if they want to get compensation?

This can be invited or not. Because this is a criminal case, the prosecution is carried out by the public prosecution agency, that is, the procuratorate, and the civil compensation is applied by the victim, so the police said that they need to hire their own lawyers to apply for civil compensation. You don't need a lawyer, you can claim in court, but you need to keep all the evidence.
