Whistleblower protection is provided by Federal acts and related statutes that shield employees from retaliation for reporting illegal acts of employers. This protection also extends to Louisiana as it is enumerated in Louisiana Revised Statutes 23:967 and prevents employers from retaliating against employees who report "violations of law." The Law Offices of L. Clayton Burgess has done a wide range of work dealing with whistleblower protection. If you or someone you know faced retaliation for advising about his or her employer’s “violations of law,” please contact our law offices by filling out the form on the left side of the screen or call us at 1-877-234-7573. Remember, all calls are confidential.
