 In False Claims Act cases, a private citizen who knows of fraud committed against the government may file a lawsuit under seal—the lawsuit documents are literally sealed by the court and are not accessible to the public—to recover the losses caused by the fraud. The False Claims Act provides substantial rewards in such cases. Whistleblowers are entitled to between 15% and 30% of the total case recovery, including treble damages (triple the amount of loss caused by the fraud) and penalties. In addition, whistleblowers can recover for retaliation taken against them by their employers.
Hirst & Chanler LLP has a staff of attorneys, investigators, auditor and CPA ready to evaluate your whistleblower case and apply our significant resources to make it successful.
