Legal Guidance for Reporting Fraud

At the Law Offices of Peter Katz, we recognize whistleblowers’ critical role in exposing fraud and ensuring the integrity of our financial and governmental systems. Whether you are considering coming forward or have already discovered fraud, we are here to provide you with expert guidance and legal protection throughout the process.

Understanding Whistleblower Rights

Whistleblowing is a courageous act, and it’s vital to understand both your rights and responsibilities when reporting fraud. Under federal laws like the False Claims Act, whistleblowers can file lawsuits against individuals or companies defrauding the government. These cases can involve healthcare fraud, government contracting fraud, tax evasion, etc.

As a whistleblower, you may be entitled to a financial reward if your information leads to a successful recovery of funds. This economic incentive is meant to encourage individuals with knowledge of fraud to step forward. Whistleblowers are entitled to protection against retaliation from their employers. In cases of wrongful termination or harassment, our firm will take immediate action to protect your job and career.

How We Help Whistleblowers

We provide comprehensive legal services for individuals who have information about fraud against the government. Here’s how we help:

1. Confidential Case Evaluation: We assess your case confidentially when you contact us. We’ll listen to your concerns, explain your rights, and help you determine if you have a viable whistleblower claim.
2. Filing a Qui Tam Lawsuit: If your information qualifies, we can assist in filing a qui tam lawsuit on your behalf. Under the False Claims Act, whistleblowers who file these lawsuits may receive a portion of the amount recovered by the government.
3. Protection and Representation: We offer legal protection from retaliation, including wrongful termination, demotion, or discrimination. We will advocate for you to protect your legal rights if you face retaliation.
4. Anonymity and Confidentiality: We can help you file anonymously, ensuring your identity is kept safe during the investigation and legal proceedings.
