Pharmaceutical Fraud | Whistleblower News
Choosing to come forward with evidence that an employer or company may be committing fraud against the government is a brave and honorable act. Whistleblowers play a pivotal role in the detection and investigations and prosecution of fraud against the government. According to Taxpayers Against Fraud, more than 80 percent of cases pursued under the False Claims Act are initiated by whistleblowers. The False Claims Act also protects and reimburses whistleblowers for their courage and integrity in coming forward with evidence of corporate wrongdoing and/or fraudulent conduct and for participating in the process of pursuing a false claims act case in court.
Qui tam lawsuits can be brought against any organization, even government entities that violate a law or regulation. Pharmaceutical fraud is the most common type of fraud pursued under the False Claims Act. If you are aware of any corporate wrongdoings, or any possible fraudulent activities, we encourage you to contact a lawyer immediately.
