Legal Disclaimer
Please read this disclaimer carefully before using the information on this website.
Summary in Plain English
This website provides general information about the False Claims Act and qui tam law. It does not provide legal advice for your specific situation. Reading this website does not make you our client, and we are not your lawyers unless we have signed a written agreement to represent you.
Before making any legal decisions, consult with a qualified attorney who can evaluate your specific circumstances. Every case is different, and the information here may not apply to your situation.
General Information Only
The information contained on this site is intended to educate members of the public generally and is not intended to provide solutions to individual legal problems. Readers are cautioned not to attempt to solve individual problems solely on the basis of information contained herein. False Claims Act cases involve complex legal issues that require professional evaluation.
The content on this website is provided for informational purposes only. While we strive for accuracy, we make no warranties or representations about the completeness, accuracy, reliability, or suitability of this information. Any reliance you place on such information is strictly at your own risk.
No Attorney-Client Relationship
Use of this website does not create an attorney-client relationship. Such a relationship is formed only through a separate, signed engagement agreement with a qualified attorney after they have agreed to represent you.
Submitting information through our contact forms, sending emails, or otherwise communicating with us does not create an attorney-client relationship. Until a written fee agreement is signed, your communications may not be protected by attorney-client privilege. Please do not send sensitive or confidential information until you have established a formal attorney-client relationship.
If you need legal advice, please contact us to request a confidential consultation with a qualified attorney.
Practice Area and Geographic Limitations
This Site addresses United States federal law at a general level. Laws differ by jurisdiction and change over time, so always confirm how the law applies where you are with a qualified local attorney.
Each case is unique, and prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. The outcome of any legal matter depends on many factors, including the specific facts involved, the jurisdiction, and the law applicable to your situation.
For information about evaluating whether you have a case, please consult with a qualified attorney.
Not a Referral Service Guarantee
Any attorney information on this Site is provided for general informational purposes. QuitamOnline does not guarantee the suitability, availability, or performance of any attorney, and listing or mention does not constitute a recommendation for your specific matter.
QuitamOnline provides general education about qui tam law and the False Claims Act. It does not practice law and does not provide legal services directly.
Contingency Fee Arrangements
Many qui tam cases are handled on a contingency fee basis, meaning the attorney's fee is a percentage of any recovery obtained. Under contingency arrangements, clients typically pay no attorney fees unless their case is successful. However, clients may be responsible for certain costs and expenses regardless of outcome, depending on the specific engagement agreement.
The specific terms of any fee arrangement are governed by the written engagement agreement between the client and the attorney. You should discuss fees thoroughly before engaging any attorney.
Email and Electronic Communication Security
Email and other electronic communications are not inherently secure. Information transmitted electronically may be intercepted or accessed by third parties. Until an attorney-client relationship is established and secure communication methods are arranged, please be cautious about the information you share electronically.
If you are concerned about confidentiality, please telephone our office directly or wait to share sensitive information until your attorney can establish secure communication protocols.
Advertising Disclosure
In some states, this site may be considered advertising. The hiring of a lawyer is an important decision that should not be based solely upon advertisements. Before making hiring decisions, you should request information about an attorney's qualifications and experience.
Nothing on this website should be construed as a promise or guarantee about the outcome of any legal matter. Results depend on many factors unique to each case.
The Bottom Line
This website provides general educational information about False Claims Act and qui tam matters. It is not a substitute for legal advice from a qualified attorney who knows your specific situation.
If you believe you have information about fraud against the government, the most important step is to consult with an experienced attorney who can evaluate your situation confidentially. Our information for lawyers page provides additional context for legal professionals.
