Information for Clients

What is this area of law about?

It's about people (such as employees, consultants, competitors, vendors, etc.) who sue someone or some organization on behalf of the U.S.- and/or various individual States, counties or municipalities, to stop fraud and get a reward

What does the lawsuit say?

The lawsuit typically alleges that the defendant got federal and/or state (or county or city) money through lies, misrepresentations and important omissions--not as the result of "technical" mistakes or good faith errors. If the defendant loses, it has to pay back the improperly obtained funds and often a fine or penalty.

What does Qui Tam mean?

It's part of an outdated Latin phrase for a lawsuit that pay a reward to whistleblowers who sue on behalf of a governmental entity.

What is the federal False Claims Act (FCA)?

Passed in 1863 to combat Civil War fraud, it's a federal statute designed to monetarily punish people and organizations that defraud the United States. Sometimes it's called the “Lincoln Law.” The FCA has a qui tam provision in it. More recently, a number of States and a few municipalities have enacted similar laws.

What kinds of fraud does the FCA cover?

Just about anything other than tax fraud. There is a separate IRS statute for that. There are also whistleblower laws for SEC, CFTC and bank fraud. Qui Tam Contact
