Whistleblowers

We can help you protect your livelihood

Employment Law Lawyers

Our employment law attorneys represent employees in the state and federal courts of Wisconsin, Illinois, and other states around the country. We represent employees appear before the Wisconsin and Illinois equal rights agencies and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the National Labor Relations Board, and the Wisconsin Employment Relations Commission.

Our lawyers handle matters before civil service commissions, police and fire commissions, regulation and licensing boards, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the Department of Labor, OSHA, tribal courts and numerous other employment tribunals, including for various types of alternative dispute resolution.

Employment Agreements

As an employee or professional you should contact one of our attorneys before signing any type of contract or agreement. Our lawyers provide assistance in the review, revision and negotiation of a variety of employment contracts, including, non-compete covenants, no-solicitation agreements, confidentiality and intellectual property contracts, and severance agreements.

Non-compete agreements often require immediate injunctive action and the assistance of an experienced employment attorney can make a significant difference. We also advise employees and executives on the validity of previously signed employment agreements and handle litigation in all employment contract areas regardless if the agreement was signed in Wisconsin.

Whistleblower Claim Attorneys

At Cross Law Firm, SC our lawyers have experience protecting whistleblowers against retaliation and obtaining substantial recovery for them, such as our recent $12.9 Federal False Claims Act settlement. Call our attorneys immediately to protect any and all claims you may have to a monetary reward for whistleblowing. In some cases, recovery is only possible if the information has not been raised before we file under seal, while in other cases recover is only possible if the concern was raised to a supervisor prior to retaliation, so confidentiality and quickly accessing our firm is prudent. Our firm can help protect you if it becomes necessary to renegotiate the terms for your current position, or a severance package if staying in your job is no longer possible.

Our firm has a particular focus on government contracts, where the Federal False Claims Act may be involved. If you feel that a company is defrauding the federal government, you may be able to file your concerns under seal. This process means that you cannot talk to anyone about the case, and if there is a monetary reward for the information, you will only be eligible if you follow the government's strict guidelines. Our attorneys can help you to file under seal and work with you to maintain your eligibility for any rewards there might be in the end.
