Whistleblowing and retaliation cases pose significant challenges in employment litigation, potentially exposing companies to substantial liabilities and divulging confidential information. New Jersey's Conscientious Employee Protection Act (CEPA) stands as one of the nation's broadest whistleblower statutes, offering protection to employees who reasonably believe their employer violates laws or public policies. Our panel of leading employment lawyers will provide updates on recent cases and developments in this area, along with litigation strategies for both plaintiffs and defense attorneys. Secure your spot for essential insights and answers to your toughest questions today!
