Protecting Workers' Rights
Companies sometimes engage in activities that damage the United States government, employees, consumers or the general public. Employees who report this behavior are protected by a complex set of federal and state laws. If you believe your employer is engaged in illegal activities, you should speak with an experienced employment law attorney about becoming a whistleblower.
At the Barron Law Corporation, we have assisted employees with whistleblower claims since 1991. We are ready to listen to you, and we will give you an honest assessment of your options. We will explain the possible risks and rewards of going forward with a lawsuit, and we fight for your rights if your employer fires you or retaliates against you in other ways.

Understanding Whistleblower Lawsuits
Whistleblower cases can be very complex, and there are multiple steps that a worker must take in order to receive the protection of the laws. The first step is to report the activities to the appropriate government agency. Our founding attorney, Deborah Barron, can help you choose the right one. We will be with you every step of the way and we will always be accessible in case you have questions.
Types of Problems Whistleblowers May Report
There are a wide variety of activities that are reported by workers, including:
- Submitting false bills to the government
- Tax fraud
- Fraudulent billing of Medicare or Medicaid
- Ongoing safety violations
- Knowingly selling unsafe food or consumer products
Our firm is ready to assist you at all stages of the whistleblower process. If you have already reported illegal activity and have been fired or otherwise punished, we can help you pursue a separate legal claim against your employer.
