Whistleblower / Retaliation

Whistleblower and Retaliation Lawyers ◦ Cincinnati, Ohio

Federal and state laws protect employees who in good faith raise concerns about violations of law or issues of public safety from retaliation. Such laws include protection for employees who report a workplace safety violation to OSHA, who file a claim for workers compensation benefits, who report a wage and hour violation to the Department of Labor, and who participate in an investigation of an agency's investigation into someone else's complaint. The federal False Claims Act goes so far as to allow an individual who brings a claim of government fraud against a private actor to recover a portion of the money recovered by the government.

These laws require employees to engage in specific processes and file their claims in a limited amount of time with the appropriate agency. If you believe you may have information protected by "whistleblower" statutes or that you have experienced "retaliation" as a result of engaging in activity protected by law, do not delay in contacting an experienced attorney at the Cincinnati The Law Office of Marc Mezibov, for a free consultation.

When Employees Witness Wrongdoing in a Corporate Setting

In many cases, an employee unwittingly finds himself or herself privy to information suggesting that someone in a corporate environment is engaging in illegal acts. This can include taking safety short-cuts, providing false or misleading financial information to the government or shareholders, or even engaging in illegal employment actions such as discrimination or retaliation.
