Washington, D.C. is home to countless federal agencies, contractors, and related organizations.

The District of Columbia's economy relies heavily on government contracting and public service. This environment often brings to light issues requiring whistleblower protections, such as those under the Defense Contractor Whistleblower Protection Act (10 U.S.C. § 2409) and the False Claims Act. We evaluate retaliation claims and potential reward pathways for those who report fraud or misconduct.
Beyond federal-sector specific claims, employees in Washington, D.C. are covered by a range of federal statutes applicable nationwide. This includes the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA) for veterans and reservists, as well as federal anti-discrimination laws (Title VII, ADA, ADEA) and wage-hour protections under the FLSA. We evaluate these federal claims for employees across various industries.
