Late in 2004 the Firm successfully recovered $16 Million for the American Taxpayers under an action it filed in 2002 under the Federal False Claims Act (FCA) against Gold Bank.  The former Enid branch of Gold Bank is pictured at the left.  Gold Bank no longer does business there.  The case was filed in 2002 in the United States District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma.

 

The False Claims Act was originally known as the Lincoln Law when enacted in 1863 to fight fraud on the Union Army by unscrupulous defense contractors during the American Civil War.

The False Claims Act is one of the Firms area's of concentrations in which it has achieved major success. One of its recoveries at the time placed it on the list of the Top 100 Recoveries in the 140 year history of the False Claims Act.
