Frequently Asked Questions
Every case is different, of course. This is especially true in fraud cases where the specific facts are crucial to determining whether there might be a case. The best approach is to speak with an experienced lawyer to see whether you might have a claim.
We have handled many cases involving fraud over the years. These cases have involved diverse issues, such as securities fraud (such as a Ponzi scheme); false advertising by health care providers; government contractor fraud; seafood fraud (by a fish wholesaler falsely labeling its products); and insurance fraud (falsely denying claims by knowingly misleading insureds.)
Fraud is a false statement or claim that is intended to get someone else to do something or rely on that false statement. There are many, many kinds of fraud. For example, a contractor may make false statements to the government in order to secure lucrative construction jobs. A broker may make false statements about the virtues of an investment to induce you to part with large sums of money. Fraud can be false advertising or making false business promises. When the fraud results in serious injury, usually the loss of substantial sums of money, there may be a way to cover those damages in court.
