Whistleblower Protection
Grande Law Offices has been at the forefront of litigation aimed at protecting those individuals who report government wrongdoing and are penalized for speaking out. The firm has made a commitment in and out of the courtroom to these individuals to ensure that individual rights to speak out against private and public wrongdoing are preserved. Among Grande Law Offices' recent successes are the following:
Thomas Grande represented two pharmacy technicians who were fired from their job with Bergen Industries, a Fortune 100 firm which owned and operated a pharmaceutical supply company in Hawai'i which supplied Hawaii's nursing homes and state facilities. After complaining that Bergen was reusing drugs which had been returned to the distribution facility, these employees were fired from their jobs. A case was filed under the Hawai'i False Claims act and Bergen paid a total of $4 million to the State of Hawai'i as a result of its fraudulent Medicare billings.
Grande Law Offices is committed to representing civic-minded individuals whose courageous actions lead the fight against illegality by public and private employers.
