Overview
Overview
O’Hagan Meyer represents government contractors and individuals in False Claims Act (FCA) investigations, qui tam whistleblower actions, and related government enforcement matters, helping protect their operations, reputations, and long-term business objectives.
We guide clients through every stage of an FCA matter, from internal investigations, ethics hotline reviews, audits, informal and formal government inquiries to whistleblower allegations, enforcement actions, litigation, trial, and appeal. Our attorneys help clients assess risk, develop effective strategies, respond to government scrutiny, and manage the legal, operational, and reputational challenges these matters often present.
Our firm represents government contractors of all kinds, including, healthcare entities, and other businesses facing allegations involving billing and reimbursement practices, alleged false certifications, regulatory compliance, contract performance, cybersecurity standards, and other matters that may attract FCA scrutiny. We have submitted mandatory and voluntary disclosures on U.S. and international investigations.
We also defend clients in related breach of contract, whistleblower retaliation, employment, and commercial disputes that frequently accompany FCA investigations and enforcement actions.
What distinguishes our firm is the combination of government contracts knowledge, government investigations experience, and trial capabilities. Our lawyers understand the regulatory and contractual frameworks that often are the foundation of FCA allegations, enabling us to address the underlying business issues while developing defense strategies tailored to the investigation, enforcement action, or litigation at hand.
In addition to defending investigations and claims, we advise clients on compliance programs, training, contractor ethics obligations, audit responses, internal reporting processes, and other risk-mitigation measures designed to identify issues early and reduce the likelihood of future enforcement actions.
Clients value our candid counsel, responsiveness, efficient staffing, and practical approach to resolving complex disputes. They benefit from attorneys who understand both the business realities and enforcement risks involved in FCA matters and who have extensive experience handling government investigations, enforcement actions, and related litigation nationwide.
