In the area of False Claims Act cases, attorneys from different firms often join together to pool talent, money, and other resources, to represent a relator. You should not feel that you can only have a single lawyer.  You probably will need more than one lawyer—working together, with you, as one team.

Qui tam cases have potential for large recoveries.  However, they may also involve various legal proceedings, Government offices, and thousands of documents located in several cities or states.  Theses cases often take so many resources that it is common for several lawyers and law firms to band together to expand the team of attorneys working on the case and to share resources and costs. This has been one of the more successful ways to sustain a large case. Defendants, too, often have dozens of lawyers at their disposal in high stakes litigation.
