COVID-19 Whistleblower Attorneys: Protecting Employees in Chicago
Experienced COVID-19 Whistleblower Attorneys
Our Chicago COVID-19 whistleblower attorneys represent employees who report unsafe workplace conditions or retaliation during the pandemic. In fact, The Blake Horwitz Law Firm is nationally recognized for filing some of the first COVID-19 whistleblower cases, protecting employees who speak up to safeguard coworkers.
Notable Case: Nurse Lauri Mazurkiewicz
One example involves nurse Lauri Mazurkiewicz from Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago. As a healthcare professional with extensive experience treating infectious diseases, Lauri identified gaps in workplace COVID-19 protection. She warned supervisors and coworkers that standard facemasks were insufficient and recommended N95 respirators for proper safety.
However, Lauri was fired the next day for speaking up. Our attorneys for whistleblowers filed a lawsuit on her behalf, citing retaliatory discharge and violations of the Illinois Whistleblower Act and workplace COVID-19 guidelines from the CDC.
Her story has been featured on major media outlets, including CBS, NBC, ABC, WGN, Univision, Telemundo, Chicago Tribune, Chicago Sun-Times, The Washington Post, and The New York Times.
