Do You Have A Whistleblower Qui Tam Case?
Do you have knowledge of fraud committed against a U.S. governmental agency? As a private citizen, you can file a lawsuit on behalf of the government against the wrongdoer, whether it is an individual or a business. We can help.
At FairWorld Legal Firm in Dallas, we help people understand their rights and obligations under the False Claims Act (FCA) to pursue successful claims.
The federal FCA allows someone, known as a whistleblower or relator, to file a lawsuit against a person or organization for defrauding the government. This called a qui tam action, and there is an incentive to file one. Whistleblowers are eligible to receive 15% to 25% of any resulting settlement.
Before you take action, talk to our attorneys. Call or email our firm to arrange your confidential consultation.
What Do You Risk By Blowing The Whistle?
Many people who have knowledge of fraud – whether it is Medicare or Medicaid fraud, defense contractor fraud or financial industry fraud – fear retaliation. They are scared to report the wrongdoers or file a qui tam claim because their livelihood could be on the line.
It is important to remember that your employer does not have the right to retaliate against you for reporting fraud. Retaliation includes suspension, firing, demotion, harassment or any other adverse action that affects your employment.
Additionally, when you file a qui tam lawsuit, it is filed under a seal for 60 days. This means it is kept confidential from everyone but the government. Not even the person or business being sued is told about the lawsuit. Courts are likely to extend the seal several times, but if the government decides to join the case, it will be unsealed.
We can meet with you privately to discuss your legal concerns and help you determine whether it would be wise to pursue a qui tam action.
