The Never
Again Foundation uses the power of the civil justice
system to help victims obtain justice, hold abusers
fully financially accountable, and accelerate social
change in preventing abuse. As a non-profit
charity, we have sucessfully obtained many of the
largest judgments directly against abusers in Arizona
history - now totaling over $170 Million. 100
percent of all judgments collected go directly to
the abuse victims to help them rebuild their lives. Many
voluntarily donate back to help other victims.
Our
civil law suits may affect: garnishment of the abuser's
wages and retirements; distribution of property in divorces;
distribution of life insurance or estate proceeds; and
expected inheritances. Our cases may also uncover
critical evidence to aid in successful criminal prosecution.
This will be accomplished by providing free legal
representation of abuse victims who qualify
for the program in civil actions to ensure the abusers
are financially accountable for their actions through
awards of civil compensatory and punitive judgements.
The result is to one by one attempt to take the financial
burden resulting from abuse away from the victim and
society and place it personally upon the abuser.
Our judgments are often non dischargable in bankruptcy,
and become a financial
"life sentence" that
follow abusers to either eventual prosperity or
to their grave.
In other words - Justice.
