Whistleblower Claims Attorney

In 2010, Congress passed the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act which, among many other things, amended the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to significantly increase whistleblower incentives and protections. The Dodd-Frank Act and corresponding regulations provide that a whistleblower is entitled to 10% to 30% of any recovery by the Securities and Exchange Commission that exceeds $1 million. The Act also provides protection against retaliation and allows a whistleblower to bring a private action for reinstatement, back pay and damages. A whistleblower who is represented by counsel may stay anonymous throughout the entire proceedings until the payment of an award.
