Boies, Schiller & Flexner is uniquely
qualified to pursue such claims on behalf of third party payer
entities such as insurance companies, unions, and consumer
organizations.
 |
 |
 |
|
| Insurance
companies often operate
under similar or identical contracts as the defendants
in traditional false claims act cases. |
 |
| Unions make
likely third party payers in false claims act cases
because they tend to be defrauded in ways that are
similar to the Government. |
|
| Consumer Organizations often
sponsor or fund litigation based on consumer fraud
or anti-trust actions. The same type of underlying
litigation in false claims act cases may support litigation
on behalf of consumer organizations. Boies, Schiller & Flexner
has considerable expertise in both false claims and
consumer protection class actions lawsuits. |

of your case. |
