Frequently Asked Questions

Reporting securities fraud is a significant decision, and many whistleblowers have questions before taking the first step. Below are answers to some of the most common questions we receive. If you don’t see your question here, we encourage you to contact our legal team for a confidential consultation.

Can I remain anonymous?

In certain circumstances, the SEC Whistleblower Program allows eligible whistleblowers to submit information anonymously when they are represented by an attorney. While anonymity is subject to applicable legal requirements and procedures, having legal counsel can help you understand the available options and the steps necessary to protect your identity whenever possible.

What types of fraud qualify under the SEC Whistleblower Program?

The SEC Whistleblower Program covers many types of potential securities law violations, including insider trading, accounting fraud, market manipulation, Ponzi schemes, investment adviser misconduct, false financial reporting, Foreign Corrupt Practices Act violations, and other fraudulent practices involving publicly traded companies or securities markets.

How much can an SEC whistleblower receive?

In qualifying cases, eligible whistleblowers may receive an award based on a percentage of the monetary sanctions collected by the SEC. Award determinations depend on numerous statutory and regulatory factors, and not every submission results in an award. Our attorneys can explain how the program works and evaluate whether your situation may qualify.

Do I need proof before contacting an attorney?

No. Many individuals contact us because they have concerns or information but are unsure whether they have enough evidence. During your confidential consultation, we can discuss your situation, evaluate the available information, and explain your options.

Can my employer retaliate against me?

Federal law provides important protections against retaliation for many whistleblowers. If you are concerned about potential retaliation, it is important to discuss your situation with an attorney before taking action so you understand your rights and the protections that may apply.

Should I report the issue to my employer before contacting the SEC?

Every situation is different. Internal reporting may be appropriate in some circumstances, while in others it may not be the best course of action. Before making any reports, it is often beneficial to speak with an attorney who can evaluate your specific circumstances and discuss your options.

How long does an SEC investigation take?

SEC investigations vary significantly depending on the complexity of the matter. Some investigations may conclude relatively quickly, while others can continue for several years. Throughout the process, our attorneys remain available to answer questions and provide ongoing guidance.

What happens after I contact your firm?

Your first consultation is confidential. We will discuss your concerns, review the information you have available, and explain how the SEC Whistleblower Program works. If we determine that we may be able to assist you, we will outline the next steps and develop a strategy tailored to your situation.

Is my consultation confidential?

Absolutely. Discussions with our attorneys are confidential and protected by the attorney-client privilege to the extent permitted by law, even if you ultimately decide not to retain our firm. We encourage prospective clients to speak with us before making decisions about reporting potential securities law violations or discussing the matter with others.
