Whistleblower Retaliation
If an employee reports illegal behavior (such as fraud, theft or violating the Vulnerable Adults Act or OSHA regulations) made by an employer, and the employer retaliates, the employee has the right to take legal action. These claims, called whistleblower or retaliation claims, are complex and only an experienced attorney should handle them.

We focus much of our attention on handling employment law claims for employees and have a successful track record. While we are aggressive when representing our clients in court, we are straightforward and compassionate when working directly with clients. We focus on delivering results, but are never willing to compromise integrity or professionalism.
Whistleblower Claims And Retaliation In The Workplace

Wrongful termination
Demotions
Pay cuts
Hostile treatment
