With the recent $10 million jury award to a general counsel turned internal whistleblower in Wadler v. Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., Case No. 15-cv-02356 (N.D. Cal. Dec. 20, 2016), the topic of protections and incentives available to in-house counsel who expose fraudulent or illegal conduct is in the forefront. Clay Wire, a partner at Ogborn Mihm, LLP, is one of the few trial attorneys with experience representing in-house counsel in wrongful termination and whistleblower claims. He has recently published an article regarding common claims by in-house counsel turned whistleblowers, and the common issues that arise in such claims.
