We are not afraid of a good fight. Our clients expect us to go to bat for them, especially when the going is tough. You deserve no less.
Founded in 1918, we are a national law firm with experience in a wide range of areas. With over 125 lawyers and offices in several locations, including Washington D.C. and Atlanta, our reach is nationwide. Our attorneys represent clients and litigate cases throughout the country, and from coast to coast.
We are big enough to deal with the most complex matters, but small enough to give clients the one-on-one attention they deserve. We handle litigation and transactions in a variety of areas and industries, including media, telecommunications and aviation just to name a few.
We represent individuals and companies. We litigate for and against private businesses and government entities. We routinely appear before federal, state, and local agencies to advocate on behalf of our clients.
We value strong client relationships. We make it a point to become familiar, not just with our clients’ legal needs, but with their business as well. Our goal is to provide exceptional service and attention to detail for every client, no matter how big or how small.
Protecting Whistleblowers
Because of our broad spectrum of work and the many areas of business we operate in, we are ideally positioned to defend and protect the rights of whistleblowers.
We have a long history of defending those who take up the fight to expose fraud and corruption and to improve conditions. We understand the risks. We know the courage it takes to speak up, especially when the message is unpopular and the audience is hostile. We understand what motivates those who are not satisfied with business as usual.
We have decades of experience in protecting those who seek to expose the truth. We are one of the nation’s premier firms in the area of free speech and First Amendment rights. We represent and advise clients nationwide on issues related to evidence-gathering and investigations, including undercover audio and video recordings and the use of confidential sources.
There are a few areas, like claims involving colleges, universities and other post-secondary institutions, where we do not represent whistleblower plaintiffs, but they are the exception. Our work is diverse and our expertise is deep. Our labor and employment lawyers understand the employment challenges that can arise when a whistleblower courageously steps forward. They are familiar with the claims and defenses involved when an employee or business associate files suit. They routinely address issues such as retaliation, harassment and discrimination in the workplace.
Our attorneys regularly represent clients in their dealings with the federal government. Our antitrust attorneys, for example, represent clients in civil investigations and litigation involving the United States Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission. Our employment attorneys routinely handle work-related cases before federal and state agencies. We know what it takes to put together a compelling case before the government and the courts.
We are also litigators. We know how to develop a case and advocate hard for our clients. We are skilled negotiators too. We know the ins and outs of achieving a good settlement and reward for our clients.
Because our attorneys practice in a wide variety of areas, we have access to experts and resources in any number of fields, including healthcare, finance, engineering, tax, securities, to name a few.
Our attorneys come from a broad spectrum of backgrounds. Some are former business people. Some are former government attorneys and prosecutors. All are positioned to help you make the right decision about your whistleblower case. All are here to help you in your fight against fraud, waste and abuse.
We are here to protect your rights and your reward.
