Qui Tam and False Claims Act Funding FAQs
What is qui tam litigation funding?
Qui tam litigation funding is a form of commercial litigation finance that may provide capital to support qualifying whistleblower, relator, False Claims Act, or government fraud claims. Funding availability depends on case-specific review.
Can False Claims Act matters qualify for funding review?
Potentially. False Claims Act matters may be reviewed when they involve meaningful alleged damages, a viable fraud theory, supporting evidence, capable counsel, and a credible recovery path.
Does the case need to be filed before requesting review?
Not necessarily. Matters may be at different stages, including pre-filing, sealed, unsealed, intervened, declined, actively litigated, in settlement discussions, or on appeal. Case stage is reviewed as part of the intake process.
Do I need an attorney before requesting a funding review?
Counsel involvement is especially important for qui tam and False Claims Act matters because these cases can involve strict procedural requirements, government involvement, confidentiality issues, and specialized litigation strategy.
Can funding be used for experts, investigation, or litigation costs?
Potentially. Funding requests may involve legal fees, expert witnesses, investigation support, document analysis, discovery expenses, depositions, trial preparation, appeal-related expenses, or other case-specific needs.
Should I submit confidential or sealed case details through the website?
No. Submit only basic, non-privileged, non-confidential information through the public website. Do not submit sealed, privileged, confidential, or highly sensitive materials unless specifically requested through an appropriate secure process.
Does submitting an inquiry guarantee funding?
No. Submitting information or booking a call does not guarantee funding approval. It only starts the preliminary intake process.
