A: An Indiana attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a week. I don't think you have grounds for a lawsuit. Did you suffer damages as a result of the false statement? It sounds like it could have been a transcription error. If on the other hand, there was malicious intent behind a false statement of significance, and it became material in the processing of a claim, and you suffered monetary damages as a result, that would be a different story. That's my perspective on it. Other attorneys could see things differently, so you could ask around and get other legal opinions. Good luck
