Learn - MoreThis webinar is designed for attorneys interested in learning more about the nuts and bolts of state and local government False Claims Act (FCA) cases.

Attendees will gain insights into the broad scope of FCA practice, the central role played by relators (also known as qui tams) in bringing fraud to the government's attention, and how state and local entities have adapted the federal template to serve their jurisdictions.
