Federal and State False Claims Acts have been A powerful weapon in combating fraud against the government. Since 1986, more than $27 billion has been recovered by federal and state governments across the United States as a result of false claims lawsuits.

Health Care (Medicare and Medicaid) Fraud
Pharmaceutical Fraud
Defense Contracting Fraud
Energy (Oil and Gas) Contracting Fraud
Iraq Reconstruction Fraud
Disaster Relief Fraud
Construction and Procurement Fraud
