Our whistleblower clients include physicians, healthcare providers, accountants, and other professionals who discovered fraud against taxpayer-funded programs and decided to do something about it. Fortunately, there are laws that provide incentives for whistleblowers.

The False Claims Act allows whistleblowers to report fraud against a government program and receive an award equal to 15-30 percent of the government’s recovery. Since 1986, whistleblowers have been awarded over $4.7 billion for reporting various types of fraud against the government including Medicare and Medicaid fraud, student aid fraud, defense contractor, and other types of fraud. As a result of cases filed by whistleblowers, the United States Department of Justice has recovered over $30 billion through the False Claims Act. False Claims Act cases must be filed by an attorney.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Whistleblower Program, created by the Dodd-Frank legislation in 2010, allows whistleblowers to report violations of the securities laws such as accounting fraud, Foreign Corrupt Practices Act violations, rate or benchmark manipulation and other financial frauds. SEC whistleblowers may be entitled to 15-30 percent of any recovery by the government can report anonymously if represented by an attorney.
