Event Synopsis
Qui Tam provisions under the False Claims Act (FCA) continue to be one of the top tools used when civilly prosecuting fraud today. With the rising annual recoveries and whistleblower cases filed under FCA, it is not surprising that the government continues to strengthen it and make it more daunting for anyone who attempts to do fraudulent acts.
As the FCA sustains its exciting landscape, it is important to be abreast of the recent developments as well as trends that are dawning in 2017 and beyond. Updates in FCA litigation, strategies and tactics when facing FCA investigations, and the recently decided Escobar case are just some of the most interesting topics this year.
In light of these important developments, The Knowledge Group has assembled a panel of key thought leaders to provide the audience with an in-depth analysis of the False Claims Act. In this LIVE webcast, practitioners will discuss the significant issues and the latest insights surrounding FCA, specifically its qui tam provisions. Speakers will also offer notable outlook of the ever-changing FCA landscape.
Some of the major topics that will be covered in this course are:
• The False Claims Act and Its Qui Tam Provisions – Overview
• Latest Updates in FCA Litigation
• Tactics When Facing FCA Investigations
• Compliance Strategies
• Prosecuting False Claims Act cases from standpoint of Relators & Counsel
• DOJ settlement developments
