Whistleblower Lawsuits

When someone with knowledge that false or fraudulent claims for payment are being submitted to the government, that may be the basis of a whistleblower lawsuit. These types of cases are also referred to as False Claim Act cases or Qui Tam lawsuits. Jeffrey Friedman represents individual private citizens who bring these cases (on behalf of themselves and the government) in an attempt to recover damages as a result of these false and fraudulent claims. Private citizens with information concerning fraudulent billing to Medicare or other governmental agency may be eligible to bring a false claim act case and recover a portion of the proceeds for him or herself.
