What I CAN get them is money (and in rare cases, an order requiring the other person to stop doing something, or even rarer cases, an order that the other person has to specifically perform on the contract). If they want closure they should see a therapist. If they want an apology or justice, most likely, they are just out of luck.
I have given that talk too. And handed out names of three therapists for them to try calling.
Thanks for this!
