The law firm of
Levy Phillips & Konigsberg, LLP has consistently won large, complex cases. Our attorneys explain your rights, establish the case validity and provide sound legal advice. All cases are taken on a contingency basis where the firm earns a fee only if there is a recovery, with the firm's fee being a percentage of what you are awarded. Since Whistleblower/Qui Tam cases occur throughout the United States, we can represent with a solid case.
LPK handles qui tam cases nationwide. In addition to the Federal False Claims Act, 23 states have their own false claims acts. Each one has established laws that allow recovery for "whistle-blowers" who can prove fraud against a government body and laws that protect them from retaliation by their employer.
These states include: California, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and Wisconsin. In addition, the North Carolina false claims act will go into effect on January 1, 2010, bringing the total number of states to 24. The California and Illinois false claims acts also permit relators to bring claims for fraud against private insurers. Other bodies of government that have their own false claims acts are the District of Columbia, New York City and Chicago.
