Protecting Crime Victims in Florida
Crime victims may feel helpless and not know they can seek justice beyond a criminal conviction for their attackers. Florida law gives crime victims clear rights to information about what is going on in their attackers’ criminal cases and a way to seek compensation, often called restitution. Using your state-given rights, you can collect compensation from your attacker for your losses.
Miami attorney Joshua Hertz is dedicated to representing crime victims and helping them assert their rights. Our firm assists crime victims by helping them file civil lawsuits against their attackers, assisting them in finding skilled medical treatment, and helping them secure help from the Florida Crime Victims Compensation Fund.
