In 2024, the Department of Justice saw a record number of qui tam actions under the False Claims Act (FCA), with total settlements and judgments exceeding $2.9 billion.

In a recent blog post, our team provides an overview of key FCA enforcement trends from 2024 and what federal contractors, grant recipients, and private sector companies should be on the lookout for this year.
