The False Claims Act is one of the most important protections American citizens have to recover the billions of dollars stolen through fraud from U.S. Government Programs every year. Under the act, anyone who submits or causes another to submit false claims for government funds will have to pay high penalties. The penalties are up to three times the government's damages plus $5,500 to $11,000 per false claim. Anyone who "whistle blows," or essentially alerts the government about a false claim, could receive 15% to 30% of the amount recovered for the government under the False Claims Act.

Thousands of automobile collisions happen each year, resulting in minor "fender benders," with little or no injuries, to multi-car-pile-ups, with severe injuries or death. Automobile collisions, whether they be minor or major, can have life changing consequences. With that being said, if you are involved in an automobile collision, you should consult with a lawyer to protect your rights.
