Goldberg Kohn litigators David Chizewer, Roger Lewis, Harleen Kaur and Bill Meyers are celebrated in the Nov. 7, 2025, edition of AmLaw Litigation Daily’s “Litigators of the Week” column for their continued work on a long-running False Claims Act case against Wisconsin Bell Inc. The shout-out comes in the company of a very selective list of runners-up and recognizes exceptional performance in highly visible, high-stakes litigation.
The team has been pursuing this matter since 2008, including all the way up to the U.S. Supreme Court, where they prevailed. The case involves allegations of improper claims for federal E-Rate program subsidies.
In February 2025, The U.S. Supreme Court confirmed that the payments at issue fall within the statutory definition of “claims” under the False Claims Act. Last week, U.S. District Judge Lynn Adelman in Milwaukee allowed the case to proceed, denying summary judgment and rejecting constitutional challenges to the FCA’s qui tam provisions.
This recognition demonstrates Goldberg Kohn’s long-standing commitment to representing whistleblowers and protecting taxpayer funds through False Claims Act litigation.
