On the Side of Whistleblowers

When cable TV producers at C-Span needed an expert to appear in their Washington D.C. studio to explain the ramifications of a whistleblower complaint against the president of the United States, they called David K. Colapinto.

Colapinto, 61, was an apt choice for that September 2019 morning. After earning his B.S. in history at BU (1984), he studied law and then co-founded a firm in 1988 dedicated to whistleblower cases. Over three decades, he has represented people who spoke up about allegations of wrongdoing in both government and business settings while urging stronger protections for whistleblowers.
