Georgia Business Litigation Attorney Helps Organizations Handle Whistleblowers
Skilled business lawyer defends clients in the Marietta area against federal False Claims Act and Dodd-Frank Act suits
For more than 150 years, the U.S. government has offered employees incentives to report their employers' fraudulent activity, starting with the False Claims Act and continuing through Sarbanes-Oxley and Dodd-Frank. Standing up against genuine fraud is entirely laudable, but some whistleblower claims arise where disgruntled employees make specious assertions against their employers, reflecting a skewed view of complex transactions executed in good faith. If you face whistleblower allegations in the Marietta area or Georgia, an experienced business litigation attorney at The Gunn Law Firm LLC can provide a robust defense that minimizes the consequences to your company.
Proven litigator defends clients in qui tam lawsuits for False Claim Act violations
The False Claims Act allows persons with knowledge of fraud against the government to file as a plaintiff on behalf of the government and share in the government’s recovery of funds. These qui tam actions often involve fraud in defense contracts or fraudulent billing of Medicare and Medicaid. If your firm depends on government contracts for a substantial part of its business, such allegations can be ruinous. The Gunn Law Firm LLC works closely with your company to build a case that presents the facts of your transactions in the best possible light.

Persons who have information about violations of the Securities and Exchange Act have substantial incentives to come forward under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the Dodd-Frank Act of 2010. Whistleblower allegations commonly cite:
- Stock price manipulation
- Fraudulent or unregistered sale of securities
- Insider trading
- False or misleading statements
- Failure to file required reports with the SEC
- Theft or misappropriation of funds or securities
- Bribery of foreign officials
Securities law has many complexities, so the actions of your corporate officers may be open to various interpretations.
