April 8-9: Reining In Retaliation & Winning Whistleblower Cases

March 30, 2016
By NIWR Blog

Reining In Retaliation & Winning Whistleblower Cases will review recent developments and analyze cutting-edge issues, as well as provide tips and tactics that can help you maximize your chances of success, whether you are representing clients before regulatory agencies, in mediation, or in court. Attendees will have the opportunity to discuss the enforcement of retaliation and whistleblower protections with representatives from key federal agencies, and our expert panelists will address the unique issues applicable to particular groups, such as federal employees, corporate whistleblowers, and low-wage immigrant and guestworkers.

The National Employment Lawyers Association (NELA) is the largest professional membership organization in the country comprising lawyers who represent workers in labor, employment, and civil rights disputes. NELA advances employee rights and serves lawyers who advocate for equality and justice in the American workplace. The more than 4,000 members of NELA and its 69 circuit, state, and local Affiliates are committed to working on behalf of those who have been treated illegally in the workplace.
