Whistleblower Protection

Sherman & Howard's whistleblower protection attorneys work with employers to create and administer policies, procedures and practices that prevent potentially costly claims of retaliation by whistleblowers. Under a wide range of laws, rules and regulations, an employee who makes a complaint to the designated authorities may not be retaliated against by the employer in the forms of discharge, demotion, suspension or harassment. We train managers regarding their obligations and the rights of employees. If a complaint is made, we help employers keep it internal by conducting a prompt, thorough and fully compliant investigation. If the complaining employee is not satisfied, he or she can file a charge with a government agency or sue the employer or both. Should this occur, our attorneys offer experienced representation for management in both administrative and judicial proceedings under every level of law. We will aggressively seek to hold the line on the expansion of state public policy liability.
