Whistle Blower Representation
We believe that if you have the guts to blow the whistle on fraud and corruption, you deserve representation. Various Federal laws provide protection and financial incentives for Whistle Blowers to report fraud, provided they’re the first party to disclose the information via a sealed lawsuit in Federal Court. These same laws prohibit retaliation against the Whistle Blower. Likewise, most states have laws providing for Whistle Blowers to recover part of the damages recovered by the Government.
Our team of Attorneys and Investigators have years of government and private practice experience in investigating fraud against the government and representing Whistle Blowers to ensure they’re protected and compensated for their courage.
If you believe that you know about fraud against the Government, contact O’Connell West, PLLC today to discuss your situation in a confidential consultation.
