Prominent Whistleblower Attorneys Form New Dedicated Law FirmA group of ten experienced whistleblowing lawyers has departed firm Constantine Cannon to establish Whistleblower Partners, a new law firm set to specifically address and tackle whistleblower cases. This team has had a key role in facilitating Constantine Cannon’s whistleblowing practice, representing high-profile informants from companies including Boeing Co., Meta Platforms Inc.’s Facebook, and Theranos Inc.Mary Inman, Poppy Alexander, and Hamsa Mahendranathan, core members of the newly-formed firm, assert that Whistleblower Partners will be pleased to steer clear from corporate defense work in whistleblower cases. Instead, they plan on specializing in whistleblower work, which they understand as a fast-growing sphere in need of dedicated legal expertise given the quickly evolving whistleblower programs of federal agencies. This new venture aims to fill the gap for corporate officials aiming to report fraudulent activity.Throughout their career, the lawyers have been part of numerous whistleblower awards. Notably, they were involved in a litigation with KBR Services. The case was settled at approximately $108 million, the biggest cash settlement involving Iraq War fraud to date. Eric Havian, who had a prominent role as a lead counsel in the case, is one of the lawyers transitioning from Constantine Cannon to Whistleblower Partners.The new practice also boasts of their involvement in a case against Cisco Systems Inc. where a whistleblower alleged fraudulent behavior. The lawsuit resulted in the first payout in a False Claims Act case involving a compromise of cybersecurity standards. Lawyers Mahendranathan, Inman, and Mike Ronickher who are transitioning to Whistleblower Partners represented the whistleblower in the case, resulting in a $1 million payout from Cisco.The team at Whistleblower Partners, including partners Chris McLamb, Hallie Noecker, Max Voldman, Ari Yampolsky, and associate Elizabeth Soltan, are distributed across New York, San Francisco, and Washington. Alexander and partner Mahendranathan articulate that a significant distinguishing factor of their firm would encompass their advocacy work to broaden protection and rewards programs for whistleblowers.For more information about this development, you may visit this link . #J-18808-Ljbffr
