What does Qui Tam mean?
Qui Tam is a Latin term taken from the phrase, "qui tam pro domino rege quam pro sic ipso in hoc parte sequitur." Translated, it means, "he who as well for the king as for himself sues in this matter."
Qui tam litigation allows whistleblower clients — known as "relators" — to bring actions on behalf of the government as well as themselves to expose fraudulent practices that compromise the integrity of certain programs and waste the money of hardworking taxpayers.
