WHISTLEBLOWER ACTIVITIES

Both federal and Massachusetts law protect governmental employees from retaliation for reporting unlawful conduct. Massachusetts law also protects private employees from retaliation for doing what the law requires (for example, jury service), for refusing to do what the law prohibits (for example, engaging in unlawful conduct at the employer's behest), or for reporting illegal activity to supervisors or the authorities.

Statutes of limitation are short so it is very important to contact an attorney as soon as possible.
