The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, enacted in July 2010, was a pivotal moment in the regulation of the U.S. financial industry. Aimed at preventing the excessive risk-taking that led to the global financial crisis, Dodd-Frank introduced stringent regulatory measures, including a comprehensive whistleblower program designed to uncover and prosecute financial fraud and corruption. The attorneys at Miller Shah LLP possess a profound understanding of Dodd-Frank regulations, complimented by a wealth of experience handling whistleblower cases. Our California team is adept at navigating the complex legal terrain that Dodd-Frank cases encompass, protecting our clients’ rights and safeguarding public interest.
Congress recognizes the important role members of the public play in identifying and prosecuting securities fraud, and they included provisions for whistleblower claims in the Dodd-Frank act. These provisions not only offer protection but also incentivize individuals to report violations of securities laws, such as insider trading, accounting fraud, and other deceptive practices.Â
Whistleblowers acting under Dodd-Frank may be entitled to substantial financial rewards, including a portion of the monetary sanctions collected as a result of successful enforcement actions prompted by their tips. To qualify, individuals must provide original information stemming from their independent knowledge or analysis, which must not be previously known to the SEC or publicly available. Miller Shah guides clients through this intricate process, ensuring the evidence they provide, whether documents, emails, financial records, or other proof of fraud, meets the original source criteria set forth by Dodd-Frank.
Dodd-Frank’s reach extends beyond the United States, encompassing fraudulent activities by foreign companies that impact U.S. markets or investors. Our international capabilities allow us to effectively represent clients involved in such transnational issues. Moreover, our active participation in the International Advisory Group global network gives our clients access to more than 50 established firms across 70 jurisdictions worldwide, ensuring local expertise and support.
