Walters, Director For Further Information: Media Inquiries-Allison InserroOAGpress@njoag.gov TRENTON — Civil enforcement efforts recouped $193 million for the State of New Jersey in 2025, Attorney General Jennifer Davenport announced today. Settlements in 2025 included—among other things—the State’s largest-ever non-Medicaid False Claims Act settlement. The amount does not include settlements that are awaiting approval by a court—including, for example, New Jersey’s landmark settlements against major companies in connection with PFAS contamination, which were valued at over $2.5 billion and included the largest single-state environmental settlement in U.S.

“I am so proud of the dedicated team in the Division of Law, who work tirelessly every day to defend New Jerseyans against consumer fraud, environmental wrongdoing, financial scams, and more” said Attorney General Davenport. “We will continue to stand up for New Jerseyans in court and protect New Jerseyans from unlawful practices that drive up costs for consumers and make our communities less safe.” “Public service is a calling and is exemplified by the 500 attorneys and legal staff within the Division of Law,” said Michael C. Walters, Director of the Division of Law. “The Division’s attorneys and staff work tirelessly on the thousands of matters handled to achieve the best possible outcome for the State and its residents, whether the matter involves a recovery or payment by the State.” These are the top settlements received by New Jersey in 2025: Horizon Healthcare Services $100,000,000.00 Horizon Healthcare False Claims Act Solvay     $33,950,000.00 Arkema Judicial Consent Order Lyft          $19,435,087.05  Lyft Driver Misclassification Daimler/Mercedes  $11,066,162.00 Mercedes Consumer Fraud, Environmental Claims Financial Services for America    $2,217,055.73 Financial Services Mortgage Relief Scheme Township of North Wildwood    $1,700,000.00 North Wildwood ACO ADS Renovation Group $1,699,174.93 ADS Renovation Group Final Order Presperse Corporation $1,667,830.29 Presperse Corp.

It does not reflect other forms of relief obtained in some of those matters that directly benefit victims, such as restitution for defrauded consumers or investors, balance forgiveness, and/or debt relief. Separately, litigation-related settlements and judgments paid by the State in 2025 totaled approximately $189 million.
