What Is a Whistleblower?
Whistleblowing involves reporting illegal activity, such as civil rights violations or fraud. Whistleblower laws protect people who report these violations from retaliation from employers. As a whistleblower, you can also take legal action if you are fired or penalized for reporting illegal actions like:
- Workplace safety violations
- Employment discrimination
- Sexual harassment
- Wage law violations
- Criminal activity
- Health care fraud
- Tax fraud
What Are Some Examples of Situations Where I Might Need a Whistleblower Lawyer?
When you see fraud, illegal activity, or workplace violations, it can be hard to come forward. Reporting these violations is the right thing to do. Blowing the whistle can also help others avoid discrimination or unfair treatment. Examples of situations where you might want to get the help of a whistleblower lawyer include:
- Your employer is unlawfully discriminating against other workers
- Your employer does not want you to participate in a government investigation into fraud
- You were punished for reporting sexual harassment
- You find out a doctor is committing health care fraud
- Your employer tells you not to report dangerous work conditions
How Can a Whistleblower Lawyer Help Me?
A whistleblower lawyer can help you report the illegal activity to the proper government agency. If your employer retaliates against you for blowing the whistle, your lawyer can represent you in filing a whistleblower lawsuit. Your lawyer can handle every aspect of filing a lawsuit, including representing you in settlement negotiations or at trial. A successful lawsuit could mean you receive compensation for:
- Lost income
- Reinstatement of your job
- Emotional distress
- Statutory damages
- Financial award for reporting fraud
What Could Happen if I Don’t Hire a Whistleblower Lawyer?
If you don’t hire a whistleblower lawyer, you will have a hard time getting justice for the retaliation you faced. This will also expose other workers to harassment or illegal job treatment because your employer will think they can get away with anything. Without hiring a whistleblower lawyer and taking legal action, you could face:
- Workplace retaliation
- Harm to your reputation
- A hostile work environment
- Losing your job and benefits
- Loss of compensation you could recover in a lawsuit
