National Law Journal Quotes Lynne Bernabei

In the October 29 issue of The National Law Journal, Lynne Bernabei is quoted in an article entitled “Employers Scoring in Whistleblower Actions”. The article discusses how the Department of Labor’s interpretation of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002(SOX) does not adequately protect employees. "If you have someone reporting insider trading, you shouldn't have to say in addition that they're defrauding shareholders, that should be enough," Ms. Bernabei says in the article. She adds that the Department of Labor has created a burden of proof for employees beyond what the statute requires.
