Whistleblowers' guide to using the internet to find a qui tam lawyer for a False Claims Act case
Phillips & Cohen is the nation's most successful law firm representing whistleblowers, and one of the few that specializes solely in whistleblower cases. Our attorneys have received many accolades for their work on behalf of whistleblowers, such as: - "Hot List" of the Top 20 plaintiffs' law firms for 2004, 2007 and 2009 (National Law Journal)
- "Winning Attorney" for 2008 (National Law Journal)

- California Lawyer of the Year for 2010.
Qui tam cases brought by our attorneys have resulted in more than $5.3 billion in civil recoveries and related criminal fines. We have set several records for whistleblower cases, just based on our cases alone, including: - The largest healthcare fraud settlement ever ($1.8 billion -- Pfizer Inc.).
- The largest amount ever paid by a defense contractor in a qui tam case ($325 million -- Northrop Grumman).
- Largest settlement ever paid by a medical lab company for a faulty product ($302 million -- Quest Diagnostics).
Phillips & Cohen's attorneys work solely on cases representing whistleblowers. Many of them have more than 20 years experience with whistleblower cases and have represented whistleblowers in 24 states. Phillips & Cohen has its main office in Washington, DC, which enables us to work closely with officials and lawyers at Justice Department's headquarters, where most of the case-planning and decision-making occurs. We also have an office in San Francisco. Phillips & Cohen is committed to providing whatever resources are necessary to win a qui tam case for its whistleblower clients. To win the settlement with HCA, Phillips & Cohen assembled a litigation team with five other law firms and spent close to $30 million in legal and accounting resources.
