Labaton Sucharow was the first law firm to establish a whistleblower practice focused exclusively on protecting and advocating for individuals who report violations of the federal securities laws. We believe this unique focus enables us to better leverage our award-winning securities expertise, experience and resources to deliver extraordinary results for our clients.

In evaluating cases, we are extremely selective. This approach allows us to dedicate ourselves to the most promising cases and ensure that each of our clients’ cases is a firm priority.  

Our clients tend to be corporate insiders with a lot to lose or other whistleblowers that are able to substantiate a significant securities violation. On their behalf, we invest substantial time and resources helping them to chart the best course of action. This involves a careful evaluation of the following key areas:

 

• Determining whether a significant violation of the federal securities laws has occurred; 
• Understanding our clients’ goals and objectives; 
• Examining the risks and rewards associated with reporting the violation to the SEC and other law enforcement authorities; and
• Developing disclosure strategies that minimize the risk of retaliation and maximize any potential monetary award.

We don‘t just file papers and disappear. We are in it for the long haul, guiding whistleblowers through tricky terrain with compassion and responsiveness.
