What is a Qui Tam Lawsuit?

A: It has a funny name, but it involves serious business. In a Qui Tam lawsuit, an individual (known as the relator) who has direct knowledge of a fraud committed against the government can file a lawsuit. The lawsuit is brought under the False Claims Act, which provides significant financial incentives to the person who reports the fraud, also known as the qui tam whistleblower. Qui tam whistleblowers and their attorneys have recovered many billions of dollars for the taxpayers as a result of uncovering fraud against the United States. Fraud committed against the government costs us the taxpayers billions of dollars and takes valuable services away from those that need it most.
