Very few attorneys have successfully ligated cases involving white collar crimes or public corruption offenses. The government has endless amounts of resources at their disposal to investigate and prosecute these crimes.

In recent years, the federal government has aggressively perused health care fraud investigations and prosecutions. Despite this aggression, there are several defenses to health care fraud cases that an EXPERIENCED attorney will be able identify.
Many cases involve a violation of the False Claims Act (FCA), which allows the government to begin a civil or administrative investigation. The FCA also allows a whistleblower, including current or former employees, to sue an employer and to recover a portion of the funds returned to the government. The government also relies heavily on the False Claims Act to bring criminal charges for illegal kickbacks. FCA investigations may also lead to the discovery of additional criminal violations.
It is common for medical professionals to become subject to the federal health care fraud investigations due to a misunderstanding or simple mistake.
It is imperative to contact an EXPERINCED health care fraud attorney when the government begins its investigation.
