Are there rewards for whistleblowers under the False Claims Act?
Yes. In fact, numerous whistleblowers represented by Packard, Packard & Johnson have received cumulative rewards (after attorney's fees) of over $30,000,000. A few individual amounts sent to clients include:
- $8,000,000
- $7,500,000
- $7,000,000
- $5,000,000
This is because in a False Claims Act lawsuit (often called an FCA suit), the relator may share 15% to 30% in any revenue recovered.
