Venable has wide-ranging experience representing government contractors suspected of procurement fraud. Our attorneys have handled both internal corporate investigations and investigations conducted by the Department of Justice and agency inspectors general involving allegations of criminal False Claims Act and Procurement Integrity Act violations, source selection information misuse, bid rigging, data misappropriation, bribery, kickbacks, and false statements.
In addition, we assist contractors with voluntary disclosures when necessary; help contractors navigate potential parallel proceedings that can have serious, adverse business consequences, including suspension and debarment; and develop programs and policies to ensure compliance with procurement laws.
