Current Legal Risks for Government Contractors
Congress has continued to increase funding to combat fraud, waste and abuse, which means more prosecutors, more agents, and more investigations. Recent pronouncements by senior officials at the Department of Justice have made it clear that the government intends to increase its enforcement efforts. Companies who know where the risks are can take tangible steps to minimize those risks.
Please join Bill Walter and his guests from Foley & Lardner – Matthew Krueger, Lori Rubin, and Rohan Virginkar – as they discuss current government enforcement trends and issues companies should watch for as they navigate the post-pandemic market. Some of the high-priority areas the panel will discuss include:
- The CARES Act and the Paycheck Protection Program
- Cyber certifications and incident reporting
- Small business representations
- False Claims Act and whistleblowers
- Antitrust, no-poach agreements, and bid rigging
- Contracts with foreign governments and other international business risks
- Maintaining an effective compliance program
