经验

The following represents experience prior to joining Jones Day.

Led the trial team that represented one of the world's largest systems integrators in a False Claims Act lawsuit alleging kickbacks, TINA violations, false statements, and anticompetitive activity. This matter involved scores of contracts, the production of millions of documents, and depositions of more than 150 witnesses.

Represented one of the country's largest providers of technology products and services for business, government, and education. This FCA matter included allegations of false claims, false statements, and alleged violations of the Trade Agreements Act. Took expert depositions and argued motions for summary judgment and to exclude relator's experts.

Represented an international manufacturer of recombinant and plasma-based therapies and other medical products in an FCA case alleging Medicare and Medicaid fraud. Convinced the DOJ not to intervene in the matter, and successfully narrowed the case from 26 to 2 drugs through aggressive motions practice under Rule 9 and Rule 12. Following narrow discovery, successfully achieved summary judgment regarding the remaining two drugs.

Represented an international pharmaceutical company charged with Medicare and Medicaid fraud in the AWP false pricing cases. The FCA case remained under seal for more than a decade. The DOJ intervened in multiple cases against other pharmaceutical companies but, as lead trial team attorney, was able to convince the DOJ not to intervene against the client even though this same qui tam case produced a multitude of federal and state private class actions, federal MDL proceedings, and multiple state attorney general actions alleging state FCA and common law fraud claims.

Represented one of the world's largest software companies in parallel criminal and civil FCA actions involving GSA schedule contract pricing and discounts. Worked closely with the DOJ's investigation, prepared witnesses for grand jury appearances, and made detailed presentations that convinced the government to resolve the matter without criminal liability. The civil FCA claims were resolved out of court and at a small fraction of the DOJ's initial demand.

Represented an international software, hardware, and networking company accused of false claims relating to GSA schedule contract pricing and discounts. Following the receipt of inspector general subpoenas and civil investigative demands, prepared witnesses, defended depositions, and convinced the DOJ to settle at a substantially reduced amount.
