Were you or your business the victim of a crime in Georgia and were awarded financial restitution?
(Alternately: Were you the victim of a crime in Georgia who was awarded financial restitution from the offender by a judge?)
Is there a possibility you didn’t claim part or all of those funds?
When restitution goes unclaimed by a victim for more than two years it is transferred to the Crime Victims Emergency Fund, administered here at the Crime Victims Compensation program – for an additional three years. Unlike other programs we manage, Victims Unclaimed Restitution serves victims of both violent and nonviolent crimes, and businesses, as well.
If you believe you may be owed restitution, you can search our database by providing your legal name (or the name of your company) and the city or town in Georgia where the crime occurred.
