Whistleblower Claims
The False Claims Act allows whistleblowers with knowledge of fraud against the government to file lawsuits on behalf of the government under seal while protecting them from retaliation by their employers if they come forward with information about wrongdoing at work without fear of retaliation from their employer(s). This law provides incentives for whistleblowers who report fraud against taxpayers' money; it rewards them with up to 30% percent share if successful prosecution occurs under this act.
Arbitration Proceedings
Arbitration proceedings are an alternative dispute resolution method used instead of going through court proceedings when parties cannot agree on how best resolve disputes between themselves outside courtrooms but still want some formality involved before reaching an agreement between themselves without having judges decide what happens next based solely upon evidence presented during trial hearings held before juries made up mostly non-lawyers selected randomly from local communities where trials occur regularly throughout America every year since our country was founded over two centuries ago now!
