Whistleblower (Non-Qui Tam)

When we think of whistleblower claims, we often think of qui tam cases where citizens file claims against fraud on behalf of the government. However, it’s also possible for citizens and employees to report any form of illegal activity. These non-qui tam whistleblowers play an important role in keeping organizations and employers responsible for their actions.

What Are Non-Qui Tam Whistleblower Suits?

The False Claims Act allows for private citizens to file claims of fraudulent behavior against the government. These cases are qui tam suits, allowing the citizen to act on behalf of the federal government. Any other reports and claims against a company or individual for violating the law in ways aside from fraudulent behavior are not qui tam cases, but they are still whistleblower suits. These claims can include actions like illegal dumping of toxic waste and accounting fraud by financial organizations.

Whistleblowers are important for keeping companies in check and ensuring that these entities follow proper regulations and laws. That alone can be enough for you to want to have the support of a skilled attorney so that you can increase your chances of having a successful claim.
