To schedule an initial consultation with an experienced attorney, call our office or complete the form.

Government contracting fraud costs the United States millions of dollars each year, which is why accusations are often aggressively investigated and prosecuted. Government contracting fraud can occur anytime the government contracts with a private entity.

Fraudulent activities include, but are not limited to:

Falsifying information on contract proposals
Using Federal funds to purchase items that are not for Government use
Billing more than one contract for the same work
Billing for expenses not incurred as part of the contract
Billing for work that was never performed
Falsifying data

Substituting approved materials with unauthorized products
Misrepresenting a project’s status to continue receiving Government funds
Charging higher rates than those stated or negotiated for in the bid or contract
Influencing government employees to award a grant or contract to a particular company, family member, or friend
