A Way Out Of The Catch-22
Would you rather work in an environment where you had to endure the illegal activity going on around you or would you rather be fired for reporting it? For some workers, this is the risk they take when they report employer wrongdoing, including:
- Sexual harassment
- Environmental violations
- Unsafe working conditions
Luckily, there are legal remedies for workers who are brave enough to step forward and reveal illegal activity in the workplace. If you’ve been a whistleblower at your California workplace and have suffered adverse employment effects as a result, you need the strong and determined representation that experienced nationwide whistleblower lawyer Todd M. Friedman can offer. Contact us to set up your appointment to discuss your situation.
When The Truth Sets You Free — From Your Job
Any negative consequence you suffer after reporting your employer’s illegal activity could be construed as retaliation. This could include not only firing, but also demotion, poor job review or any other potentially punitive action. Employer retaliation is against the law, and you can fight it. There is even specific legislation that protects you against retaliation for reporting environmental violations, including provisions in the federal:
- Clean Air Act
- Safe Drinking Water Act
- Solid Waste Disposal Act
- Water Pollution Control Act
Don’t be bullied into silence or accept retaliation as inevitable. The Los Angeles Employment Law attorneys of Law Offices of Todd M. Friedman, P.C. stand up for what’s right, enforcing whistleblower protection when you yourself have stood up for what’s right and gotten burned.
We also represent qui tam cases, wherein a whistleblower makes a claim that his or her employer defrauded the government in some way. In these cases, the whistleblower is entitled to a percentage of whatever money is recovered from a winning case.
