Whistleblower/False Claims Act

Connecticut Qui Tam Whistleblower Law

Retaliation – Wrongful Termination

The law firm of Silver Golub & Teitell LLP represents whistleblowers who report cases of accounting fraud, price fixing, unfair trade practices, defrauding consumers, fraudulent use of government funds (known as qui tam cases), and other forms of intentional misconduct against their employers.

Many employees who report cases of fraud against their employers suffer retaliation such as demotions, salary cuts, harassment, transfers, or wrongful termination. If you have been terminated after you reported fraud or other types of employer misconduct, or your job has been threatened, you have a cause for civil action against your employer.

If you have knowledge of any kind of business fraud, you should seek advice from an experienced qui tam and whistleblower law attorney to learn about what types of recoveries and protections are available to you. We offer a free consultation to evaluate your case. Our qui tam and whistleblower law attorneys handle employment law cases on a contingency fee basis, which means you will not have to pay any attorney fees unless we obtain a recovery for you.

Qui Tam Lawsuits

If your employer has committed fraud against the U.S. government, you can file a qui tam lawsuit against your employer under the Federal False Claims Act. If the action is successful, you will be awarded a percentage of the recovery. The False Claims Act also protects whistleblowers from acts of employer retaliation.

Accounting Fraud

Cases of accounting fraud are taken very seriously in the post-Enron business environment. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which was passed to improve public confidence in publicly traded companies, contains provisions to reward and protect whistleblowers.

Consumer Fraud

If your employer has committed consumer fraud against individuals, businesses, or local governments, our whistleblowers attorneys can represent you in any actions involving employer retaliation. Our whistleblower attorneys also represent the harmed consumers in class action lawsuits against your employer.
