The Right Way
If you’re considering blowing the whistle, Brown, LLC is here not only to help — but we understand what you’re facing. Our founder, Jason T. Brown, conducted and participated in undercover operations with the FBI, so he knows first-hand the pressure, risk, and courage it takes to come forward. As one of the most accomplished whistleblower law firms in the country, we represent individuals who expose fraud against the government under the False Claims Act (FCA) and other whistleblower protection statutes, including SEC and IRS whistleblower programs.
Our whistleblower law firm has helped secure back-to-back nine-figure False Claims Act settlements, including a $950 million aggregate recovery against Raytheon Technologies with a $432 million FCA component, and a $350 million FCA settlement involving Walgreens. Brown, LLC stands tall as one of the few firms in the nation to achieve back-to-back years with nine-figure False Claims Act results. With a team of attorneys that includes former Department of Justice alumni, Brown, LLC is uniquely positioned to handle complex whistleblower cases nationwide. However, past results don’t guarantee future success.
The lawyers at Brown, LLC once represented individuals who were repeatedly told that a kickback scheme was “legitimate” and that “everyone was doing it.” By tackling the misconduct head-on through the False Claims Act and the Anti-Kickback Statute, our qui tam firm helped secure an eight-figure settlement.
“In whistleblower matters, timing and precision are what counts. Those that file the right way stand to help the system and enrich themselves along the way through the whistleblower rewards system the wrong way you’re in store for nothing but heartache,” said Jason T. Brown, founder of Brown, LLC. “Our job is to protect you, position the case properly, work with you throughout and tee the matter up to give you the best possible shot at success.”
The head of the firm, Jason T. Brown, a former FBI Special Agent and Legal Advisor, is licensed in Washington, DC.

You Have Question. We Have Answers.
The False Claims Act allows private citizens to file lawsuits (called qui tam actions) against individuals or companies that defraud the government. Given the high volume of federal contracts and healthcare programs in Washington, DC, FCA cases are especially relevant here. Relators — the legal term for whistleblowers under the FCA — may receive up to 30% of the government’s recovery. However, only the first to file is eligible for the award, so timing and proper legal guidance are critical.
You can report fraud through a confidential legal process. It’s critical to consult with a DC whistleblower attorney before taking any action to protect your rights and potential rewards. Fraud against the government is tackled through the False Claims Act, fraud against investors and Ponzi schemes through the SEC whistleblower program. There are many different programs to consider, so it’s important to consult with an experienced law firm.
Yes. Several federal laws, including the FCA and Dodd-Frank, offer strong whistleblower retaliation protections, such as reinstatement, back pay, and attorneys’ fees and costs. Your company likely has lawyers involved early — you should too, to preserve your rights.
In some cases, yes — particularly with SEC and CFTC whistleblower programs. We can advise on how to preserve anonymity where possible, and explain other options to shield your identity in different types of cases.
DC is home to the federal government, major defense contractors, and national healthcare providers — making it a key jurisdiction for federal fraud enforcement. Much of the federal spending originates in Washington, DC, and there’s no shortage of fraudsters seeking to siphon those funds. With a 2024 Federal Budget of $6.9 trillion, even if just .1% is fraud, that’s $6.9 billion a year — and that might be a conservative estimate. With whistleblower awards ranging up to 30% and triple damages possible, each year billions of dollars are available for individuals who blow the whistle the right way.
