Nevada SEC Whistleblower Attorneys
The Silver Law Group and the Law Firm of David R. Chase have the experience and understanding needed to help SEC whistleblowers in Nevada aid the public interest by submitting a tip to the SEC Office of the Whistleblower. We represent individuals from Nevada and across the nation, and we deeply understand what is required to give you the best chance possible at a well-deserved financial award. If you have information regarding federal securities violations like market manipulation, Ponzi schemes, stockbroker misconduct, hedge fund fraud, or others, our team of attorneys, including a Former SEC Enforcement attorney, have the necessary know-how to give you the best shot possible at having your tip investigated, and in turn, earning you the largest reward possible.
Most tips are not investigated by the SEC, and you must follow stringent rules to be eligible for a financial payment. If the information you provide leads to successful enforcement of a payment over $1 million, you can be awarded anywhere from 10% to 30%.
In August of 2023, the SEC announced an award of $18 million to an individual who assisted the Commission, thereby saving them time and resources for the investigation. This individual first reported the misconduct internally, then to the SEC, and then offered the Commission original information and helpful cooperation that resulted in successful enforcement.
Awarding Nevada WhistleblowersAs previously mentioned, to be eligible for a financial reward, there are strict rules that you must adhere to, including the following:
- The information must be original: The Commission only takes action on tips if they are authentic and first-hand. You are not required to report internally within your company, but awards may be greater if this is the case.
- The information must be timely: The SEC must receive your information before enforcement action is taken, and any information you have must be submitted voluntarily before you are compelled to do so under a court order.
- The information must be significant: Although any information involved in an SEC violation can lead to enforcement action, the Commission determines the award based on the tip's impact. The more you provide, the more outstanding the potential award.
Our Nevada SEC whistleblower attorneys are here to help. If you think you have significant and original information regarding securities violations, we will work with you to ensure the Commission enforces action and compensates you fairly. Our collaborative approach ensures that your whistleblower case is handled with the utmost professionalism and expertise.
Experienced Nevada SEC Whistleblower AttorneysAs the SEC continues to pursue lawbreakers, the incentives for whistleblowers are reaching new heights. From 2020 to 2023, records were shattered twice, with awards totaling $114 million and $279 million, respectively. Since the inception of the SEC Whistleblower Program, the Commission reports over $6 billion in recoveries, with $2 billion awarded to whistleblowers who provided crucial information leading to enforcement actions.
While becoming an SEC whistleblower in Las Vegas, Henderson, Reno, or elsewhere in Nevada can result in a handsome reward, it can be a formidable task. Your employer may retaliate, and worse yet, after all the information you've collected and time dedicated, the Commission may refuse to investigate your tip.
