We represent all sorts of whistleblowers, from blue collar workers seeking to correct unsafe conditions to business executives opposing corporate fraud. Numerous state and federal laws protect employees who dare take a stand and blow the whistle. If you’re thinking about blowing the whistle, you’ve come to the right place. Our attorneys can help guide you through how to blow the whistle while protecting your career. There are many things to consider before speaking out. For example, should you try to remain anonymous? Should you report the problems internally to your direct supervisor, the HR manager, or a government agency? Does your disclosure need to be in writing? Do you work within the Intelligence Community or handle information regulated by HIPAA? We can guide you through these issues and more, and help you protect your livelihood.
Hoyer Law Group is home to several successful and experienced whistleblower lawyers who prosecute a wide variety of cases relating to healthcare and government procurement fraud, securities and commodities fraud, tax fraud, bank fraud, and pollution under several state and federal laws that provide rewards to whistleblowers. Two of our main areas of practice involve healthcare and education fraud prosecuted under the federal False Claims Act, 31 U.S.C. §§ 3729 to 3733, and many similar state laws. The federal False Claims Act prohibits any person from submitting a false claim for payment to the federal government. A whistleblower (called a “relator”) who has knowledge about the fraud can bring a claim called a qui tam claim on behalf of the government. If the relator is successful and recovers money for the government, the government will pay the relator a reward of up to 30% of the recovery.
Our team has decades of experience from a wide variety of backgrounds. We’ve worked for and with numerous agencies to protect employee rights, expose government fraud, and help small businesses succeed. At Hoyer Law Group, we leverage our experience and investigative prowess to leverage the facts to strengthen your case.
