(2) Provide a path to redress financial exploitation through the recovery of property and assets taken from victims while discouraging protracted litigation;
(3) Provide access to justice for victims and their families who are otherwise unable or unwilling to retain competent legal assistance due to cost; and
(4) Strongly deter individuals seeking to take advantage of susceptible adults or older adults.
