Comment on How come people get fined for breaking the law and it goes to the state or county? Why doesn't the fine go to the victim or victims? Instead of having to pay restitution just fine them.

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.
