Itak K. Moradi

Senior Associate at Knox Ricksen

Itak Moradi’s practice focuses on litigating high-stakes fraud. She works on complex qui tam cases on behalf of insurance carriers, welfare benefit plans, and other payors, including a large qui tam based on a massive healthcare fraud conspiracy involving payment of kickbacks for the use of and billing for implantable, counterfeit hardware used in spinal surgeries. Itak understands the sensitivities required for working closely with whistleblowers to mount a case and obtain winning results, while simultaneously safeguarding against retaliation.

Itak works pro bono with the San Francisco chapter of the Coalition of Concerned Legal Professionals, and in 2018 successfully initiated a HUD investigation into unlivable conditions and retaliatory management practices at an affordable living community. The investigation resulted in the overturning of more than 100 retaliatory evictions.
