The False Claims Act is the government’s most important tool to uncover and punish fraud against the United States. The key enforcement mechanism in the False Claims Act is its reliance upon “insiders” or whistleblowers to provide credible information documenting fraud against the U.S. government. These whistleblowers assist the government in protecting the public trust and holding accountable those who would defraud the government.
Anyone who has information about fraud against the government is a potential relator. Qui tam relators include employees, patients, vendors, bookkeepers, medical care providers, accountants, auditors, independent contractors, analysts and service providers — if you are aware of fraud against the government at either the federal or state level, you may be able to start a False Claims Act case.
You may have a False Claims Act case if you have knowledge that a company or person has cheated the government. This conduct generally includes:
Defrauding the government takes many forms and includes:
Consult with an experienced FCA/Whistleblower attorney who can help you determine and understand your options - to file an FCA case you must have an attorney.
Take notes about what you are observing.
Consult with an FCA/Whistleblower attorney before hiring an attorney solely for an employment claim.
