DiCello Levitt, alongside other leading firms, secured a groundbreaking $70 million settlement in a whistleblower lawsuit alleging municipal bond fraud and price-fixing. Our dedicated team, including Frank Amanat, Greg Gutzler, and Chuck Dender, played a pivotal role in this historic achievement. Edelweiss Fund LLC bravely brought this lawsuit forward, shedding light on deceptive practices in the marketing and pricing of tax-exempt municipal bonds known as VRDOs. This settlement, the largest reported under the Illinois False Claims Act, underscores the importance of holding financial institutions accountable for their actions. We are proud to stand alongside our esteemed co-counsel, including Constantine Cannon, Schneider Wallace Cottrell Konecky, McKool Smith, Behn & Wyetzner, Steyer Lowenthal Boodrookas Alvarez & Smith, Whistleblower Law Collaborative; Stone & Magnanini; and Howard Law, in delivering justice for the public good.
