False Claims Act
The qui tam provisions
of both the federal and state False Claims Acts allows a person or company with
specific knowledge of fraud on the government, the “whistleblower”,
to bring a lawsuit on behalf of the United States and/or respective aggrieved
States and to receive a share of up to 30% of the proceeds in the event of a
recovery. In recent years, both federal and state governments have increasingly
taken an interest in False Claims Act litigation in an effort to counteract widespread
fraud and abuse on the government.

Success in False Claims Act litigation
in many cases depends not only upon specialized skills and expertise,
but, on an attorney’s ability to work closely with Government
prosecutors and other federal and state investigative agencies. At
the direction of KEMY Founding Partners, Brian P. Kenney and Gerard
P. Egan, both former distinguished Federal prosecutors, our firm
is uniquely qualified to handle such complex and delicate matters
and has done so successfully for the past 15 years. |
