If your business partner committed fraud, you may be entitled to take legal action and recover losses sustained as a result of the partner's actions. The first action that should be taken is to give notice that you are aware of what looks like fraud.

Using both civil and criminal avenues strategically can create leverage for a settlement, if carefully managed. Seek the help of a legal professional and don't attempt any handling of this fraudulent activity on your own. For government contractors, the stakes are exceptionally high.
