The Florida Safe Harbor Asset Protection Act is built around a simple principle: people who follow the law should not bear the financial burden created by those accused of serious crimes. Tough-on-crime with constitutional safeguards, The Safe Harbor Act ensures justice is served fairly, while Florida businesses continue operating, workers stay employed, and public resources get focused where they are needed most.
