In cases of whistleblowing, our whistle blower attorneys in Los Angeles can help you:

• Determine the viability of you claims under state and federal whistleblower laws such as:
  • The Sarbanes-Oxley Act which protects employees of publicly traded companies who report corporate fraud or securities violation.
  • California's Whistleblower Protection Act which prohibits retaliation against California employees who report violations of workplace safety laws, misuse of government funds or other illegal activity
• Attempt to resolve your claim without litigation by mediation or direct negotiation
• Evaluate the efficacy of litigation if negotiation proves unsuccessful
• Pursue a qui tam action, under the False Claims Act if you reported that your employer was defrauding the federal government.
• Determine a fair severance or settlement amount in respect to your claim
• Consider references, terms of separation, and so forth with a view toward future employment

Protecting Whistleblowers From Illegal Retaliation by Their Employers

Federal and state whistleblower laws protect you from retaliation by an employer for reporting illegal activity or fraud. Retaliation can include negative changes to your working conditions or employment status made to punish you for blowing the whistle. Our whistleblower lawyers help clients when an employer fires or discriminates against them for refusing to participate in or reporting an employer's unlawful activity. We also help clients with qui tam actions where a whistleblower reports an employer's misuse of government funds.

One whistleblowing case which our firm successfully resolved involved a client who was an officer in a large, multinational company. After discovering a product defect in manufacturing facilities around the world, he reported it, and was fired. But before a lawsuit was even filed, we successfully mediated a settlement package for him. His career credentials and reputation remained intact. The whole process was concluded in a few months.
