Whistleblower Attorneys In Downey

If you have expressed concerns about workplace health or safety issues or fraudulent business practices, including violation of any federal, state, or local law, you may be entitled to protection as a whistleblower. We provide legal advice and representation to employees who have suffered retaliation for whistleblowing (also called Qui tam). Fortunately, any employee reporting illegal activity in the workplace is protected by federal and state laws designed to encourage employees to oppose or protest against illegal activity without fear of reprisals such as termination, demotion, or discrimination.

Protecting the Rights of Employees Reporting Illegal Activity

An attorney from our firm can advise you on all aspects of your whistleblowing rights, your options and the consequences related to accusations of:
Wage/salary issues
Billing/accounting fraud
Workplace safety
False claims/records
Contract fraud/overcharging
Qui tam — “Qui tam” is a civil lawsuit alleging fraud against the federal government or federal contractors. Whistleblower cases under the Federal False Claims Act have unique protections and may involve the sharing of a recovery plus additional punitive damages.

What Types of Illegal Activities May Qualify for Whistleblower Protection?

Virtually any public or private sector organization, as well as its management or employees, may commit a wide variety of crimes during the course of their business. Examples of situations in which whistleblowers may file a claim include:
