The Whistleblower Practice Group of Patten, Wornom, Hatten & Diamonstein Debuts New Website

    NEWPORT NEWS, VA, March 30, 2017 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Whistleblower Practice Group of Patten, Wornom, Hatten & Diamonstein, L.C. (PWHD) announced on Wednesday the launch of its new website, https://www.antifraudlawgroup.com/. The practice group serves whistleblowers nationwide in claims involving fraud perpetrated against federal and state governments, including matters such as drug manufacturer kickbacks, off-label marketing of pharmaceuticals, Medicare and Medicaid overpayment, tax law abuse, Securities and Exchange Commission violations, defense contracting fraud and more.

"For people who have witnessed wrongdoing, the prospect of litigation can be overwhelming," said Scott Reichle, attorney with PWHD. "Our website strives to explain what relators can expect from a whistleblower case, as well as the potential for significant recovery and how they might stand to gain from their good deed."

The Verdicts & Settlements page on the website highlights some of the recoveries of which the Anti Fraud Law Group has been a part. Each entry provides details about how the firm helped the client, as well as the total amount recovered by the government (varying from hundreds of thousands to billions of dollars).

Educational content is a major component of the new website. In addition to emphasizing the importance of filing first and the 15 percent to 30 percent of the recovered sum to which qui tam relators may be entitled, Web pages on the site delve into different types of fraud and the avenues that individuals have for blowing the whistle and pursuing justice.

Trust is crucial for helping whistleblowers come forward, and the Anti Fraud Law Group strives to earn that trust. Content throughout the website emphasizes the confidentiality the firm maintains in false claim actions, and a section on the home page highlights the background of the attorneys so prospective clients know the people who will be handling their case.
