Florida SEC Whistleblower Attorneys
If you have original, timely, and significant information about securities violations, our firm has the experience you need to gain financial compensation for your efforts. Whether you believe you have knowledge of Ponzi schemes, market manipulation, insider trading, or any other violation that can lead to an SEC enforcement action, please contact us today. We represent SEC whistleblowers in Florida, across the nation, and internationally. Our experienced attorneys include a former SEC Enforcement Attorney who recognizes how the Commission examines securities violations and how to maximize the chances of the SEC Office of the Whistleblower investigating your tip, earning you the largest award.
When the SEC uses your information to conduct a successful enforcement action over $1 million, they may award you 10 to 30 percent of the amount collected. However, only some tips are pursued, and there are strict eligibility rules. Therefore, retaining an experienced SEC whistleblower attorney is essential to support your chances of gaining compensation and protect your anonymity.
Top Florida SEC Whistleblower Law FirmWith more chances to be awarded financial compensation, the SEC has received more tips leading to enforcement actions than ever before. Since 2020, the record amount awarded to SEC whistleblowers in a single case has been broken two times—first $114, then $279 million. In all, over $2 billion has been awarded to whistleblowers since the Commission adopted the program.
Recent changes to the SEC Whistleblower Program have increased the potential for financial awards. Florida whistleblowers will now be paid for information and assistance used in non-SEC actions, and the Commission may now consider the dollar amount of a potential award for increasing an award but not lowering it.
Awarding Florida WhistleblowersWhen the SEC’s successful enforcement actions exceed $1 million, Florida SEC whistleblowers can earn between 10 and 30 percent of the amount collected. Yet, there are stringent guidelines for eligibility, like those below:
- The information must be timely: The SEC has to receive tips before the Commission takes any action on a securities violation. All whistleblowers are required to come forward voluntarily.
- The information must be significant: Knowledge of SEC violations can lead to financial compensation, but the awards are based on the impact of the whistleblower’s information. The more helpful the account of the securities violations, the higher the potential SEC awards.
- The information must be original: The Commission needs your first-hand knowledge to pursue enforcement action for securities violations. The SEC doesn’t require whistleblowers to report internally first, but their award may be increased if they do.
If your information about Florida securities violations is timely, significant, and original, our SEC whistleblower attorneys stand ready to represent you. We’ll help you put together the information the Commission needs to substantiate violations so you can secure compensation.
