    Often after a fine, there can be a civil suit where the victims can get direct restitution.

      Ah yes I’m sure that is free as well, including the multiple days you’d have to take off work to go wait in lines and repeat the same things over and over and then maybe get a payout.

        Very often, yes.
        The lawers would take a cut of the settlement instead of upfront payment. Not sure about taking off work to wait in line. If there is some kind of line to wait in, that would be the lawers job.
