Founded in 1988, The National Whistleblower Center (NWC) is the leading nonprofit dedicated to protecting and rewarding whistleblowers around the world.
Since inception, the Kohn, Kohn & Colapinto law firm has engaged with NWC on a diverse range of precedent-setting advocacy campaigns aimed to strengthen whistleblower laws and protect the heroic whistleblowers who use them.
Together, we have generated substantial victories for whistleblowers in the U.S., including the recognition of National Whistleblower Day, the passage of the Taxpayer First Act, and a highly successful campaign against proposed harmful Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) rule changes.
Our team has also been instrumental in the enactment of key whistleblower protection and reward laws such as the Dodd-Frank Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and the Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act, among many others.
In recent years, we have expanded campaigns to include global advocacy for stronger protections. Teams work to improve public understanding of key U.S. whistleblower laws with transnational applications like the False Claims Act, Dodd-Frank Act, and Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.
Together, our ongoing support is designed to educate the public on the importance of whistleblowers and the complex framework of whistleblowers laws in the United States and around the globe.
