Just before the end of last year, we spoke with Stephen Kohn. He is a leading whistleblower attorney and subject matter expert. He won the largest ever individual tax whistleblower reward of  $104 million for UBS whistleblower Bradley Birkenfeld, and the largest ever reward ever paid to an individual under the related action provisions of the IRS, SEC and DOJ programs ($177 million). He represents Danske Bank whistleblower Howard Wilkinson in the largest money laundering scandal in world history, and successfully represented Greek whistleblowers whose information triggered a $320 million sanction against Novartis drug company under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.We met just a few days before a new AML law was passed in the US Congress. In this episode, you will hear about whistleblowing, the Danske Bank case, and more. https://kkc.com/our-whistleblower-law-firm/our-whistleblower-lawyers/stephen-m-kohn/
