Your deadline to file depends on factors such as the type of employer you work for (public vs private), size of your employer, how long you have worked there, and the type of whistleblowing and retaliation at issue, among other factors. California has multiple anti-retaliation and whistleblower laws, statutes, and protections. One Corporate act can simultaneously violate several laws and lead to multiple claims. Some retaliation claims have to be brought within as little as six months but there are also exceptions that may apply to you. To maximize your chances of obtaining full justice and full restitution, please speak with an attorney at your earliest opportunity.
