Did you or a coworker see illegal activities at your place of employment and are unsure of what to do? When companies defraud the government, employees have a responsibility to take action. Fear of repercussions shouldn’t deter you. The Whistleblower Act of 1989, along with other state and federal programs and statutes protect whistleblowers. Plus, the government will reward you with up to 30% of the recovered assets!

What Is a Whistleblower?
A whistleblower is a person who reports or otherwise sheds light on any unscrupulous business practice. This could be an illegal act, fraud or misrepresentation, abuse of power, or actions or conditions that are dangerous for health or safety. This could include illegally dumping toxic waste to committing financial or tax fraud to even dangerous work conditions.
When a knowledgeable attorney like those found at The Michael Brady Lynch Firm files a False Claims Act lawsuit, he or she files it under a seal. This means it is completely confidential. There is also a full disclosure statement in the suit, which details the evidence collected by a whistleblower.
After we file your suit, the Department of Justice will review the evidence before deciding to step in and decide if they want to prosecute the case. The government’s fraud investigator will work closely with you, the whistleblower to identify all responsible for the fraud. Then, the government could give you 15-30% of the funds recovered. In order to receive the reward, you must be the first one to file a case under the False Claims Act. This is why it is key to pick an experienced attorney to work quickly to get your compensation.
