Whistleblower Attorneys for Fraud Cases
Miller Law Group’s trusted whistleblower attorneys in Raleigh specialize in cases involving fraud against state and federal governments. We serve whistleblowers in the Carolinas and beyond.
Taking Action Against Government Fraud
When a person or company defrauds the government, it hurts all of us.
Whistleblowers bring to light fraudulent activity that would otherwise go undetected and uncorrected. The federal False Claims Act, and similar acts passed by some states, provide avenues by which whistleblowers can report fraud and receive a reward for doing so while being protected from retaliation. Other federal and state whistleblower programs provide protection, and sometimes a reward, for reporting illegal activity.
If you discover someone is cheating the government, or violating the law, you should consult with a whistleblower attorney to see what you can do to stop the fraud and protect yourself.

The Importance Of A Whistleblower Attorney In Your Case
If you think that you have discovered fraud against the government, or another significant violation of state or federal law, you should call a whistleblower lawyer right away. Your next steps are important and sensitive, and you need help to get them right. An experienced whistleblower attorney can tell you whether you have a case, talk to you about how to preserve your claim, and explain your rights and obligations as you move forward.
Investigating Claims And Seeking Recovery
If the conduct you have discovered falls under the False Claims Act, a whistleblower attorney can both protect you and assert your right to a reward by filing a “qui tam” case. These cases are filed “under seal” at first, so the public does not know about the case and the whistleblower remains anonymous while the government investigates the claims. Your whistleblower lawyer can help guide you through the filing and investigation and stand by your side in interactions with government investigators.
Whistleblower claims under other state and federal programs have different processes. Your whistleblower attorney will help you identify appropriate ways to report the conduct and talk you through considerations such as the kinds of protections offered by each channel and the availability of any rewards.
When Do I Become A Whistleblower?
A person is considered a whistleblower when they report fraudulent or illegal conduct to internal or external people who can stop or correct the behavior.
Miller Law Group specializes in guiding whistleblowers through external reporting mechanisms — government programs that provide a way for people to report fraudulent claims or violations of the law.
You may also be a whistleblower, and have the resulting protections against retaliation, when you report through internal company or organization channels. Often, internal whistleblowers are harassed or discriminated against for reporting bad behavior within the company. That kind of retaliation is forbidden by a host of federal and state laws. If you have been retaliated against at work because you engaged in internal reporting of illegal, fraudulent, or harassing conduct, you may be able to sue your employer. You should talk to an experienced whistleblower protections attorney to help negotiate agreements to protect your reputation and career or, if necessary, file a lawsuit.
