Understanding

We understand that every whistleblower is unique—with personal reasons for exposing fraud, along with personal concerns and fears. We know that stepping forward to do what’s right can be intimidating, and we work closely with our clients to help them make the best decisions for themselves and their families.

Expertise

To be effective at bringing whistleblower cases to the government, a lawyer must have a thorough understanding of federal and state anti-fraud statutes, regulations, and judicial decisions; strong investigative skills; a strong familiarity with a wide range of government programs; the ability to compellingly present the case to the government and the court under tight time constraints; and a reputation of credibility with government prosecutors. Our expertise in all of these areas leads other lawyers regularly to refer their clients to Baron & Budd for the prosecution of a potential whistleblower case.

Experience

Baron & Budd’s whistleblower team has brought cases in dozens of federal and state courts throughout the country. We have successfully brought whistleblower claims in the areas of healthcare, government contracts and procurement, securities and tax fraud, and more.
