Biography
With nearly a twenty years of focusing exclusively on False Claims Act litigation, JULIE KEETON BRACKER knows that her passion–and her mission–is to protect people who are willing to stand up and expose the truth. And if she can bring down those who profit from corruption along the way, all the better.
Julie fell in love at first sight with the False Claims Act. Unfortunately, her first sight was across the Bar– from the defense side! After wrapping up her first and only case as a lawyer for an FCA defendant, Julie upended her practice to switch sides–or, as she says, to don a white hat and fight for the good guys. For the next eight years, she worked exclusively in an FCA boutique firm, where she was named partner after only two years and closed more than 30 cases, bringing more than 80 million dollars back to the taxpayers.
In 2015, Julie and Jason Marcus opened Bracker & Marcus LLC and set out to “do well by doing good.” Their partnership is the foundation for a team of attorneys with the same mission. Over the last decade, the firm has expanded to a nationwide scope, and consults regularly with attorneys across the country to evaluate FCA claims and strategize about the best means of protecting their heroes, the whistleblowers.
Julie served on the Board of the Georgia Chapter of the National Employment Lawyer’s Association (NELA) and had the honor of serving as its President in 2014. She currently serves in the mentor program for National NELA, the Success program for Georgia NELA, and speaks regularly at the state and national level on the qui tam and retaliation provisions of federal and state False Claims Acts.
Julie was named one of Georgia’s Top Rated Lawyers by Legal Leaders, is annually selected as a Super Lawyer by Super Lawyers Magazine, and maintains the highest ratings of AV Preeminent by Martindale-Hubbell and 10.0 by Avvo. She has also received the Women in Law Award from Lawyer Monthly since 2016. In 2025, she was named to The Best Lawyers in America.™
