Whistleblower Claims: What To Know
Every year, billions of dollars in potential tax revenue are fraudulently withheld from the IRS by businesses and individuals. In an effort to prevent criminal tax fraud and motivate whistleblowers, the government enacted the False Claims Act.
Under the False Claims Act, whistleblowers have protection from employers’ retaliation, including:
- Wrongful demotion
- Wrongful termination
- Discrimination
- Harassment
- Pay cuts or reassignment
The False Claims Act also allows whistleblowers whose claims result in financial recovery to keep 15% to 25% of the amount recovered.
When it comes to whistleblowing incidents, our employment law attorneys know how important confidentiality is. We handle your case with utmost discretion to help you fight for justice.
