Based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and with offices in Phoenix and Chicago, Halunen Law brings fierce advocacy and successful outcomes to employment, executive severance, whistleblower, and False Claims Act/Qui Tam cases. We recognize the courage it takes to challenge an employer for unlawful acts, to demand a fair severance, blow the whistle on wrongdoing, and hold others responsible for their unlawful actions. Our attorneys guide clients through the legal process with expertise, close communication, and compassion. From a free initial consultation to case conclusion, our clients receive personal attention. We take time to get to know our clients, hear their concerns, answer questions, and outline a path forward.
For more than 20 years, our firm has successfully represented employees who experience sexual assault or harassment, discrimination, wrongful termination, retaliation, or other illegal actions in the workplace. The employment attorneys at Halunen Law have extensive experience challenging employers and bringing the expertise needed to get you justice.
Whistleblowers will also find expert guidance and experienced advocates at Halunen Law. Many statutes protect whistleblowers from retaliation, and some of them provide rewards to the whistleblower as well. Our firm has a dedicated practice group focused on bringing False Claims Act (FCA) cases alleging fraud against the Government. The FCA group represents courageous whistleblowers and qui tam clients across the country who have blown the whistle on many different types of fraud, including Medicare, Medicaid, other health care, pharmaceuticals, small business, government procurement, grants, environment, education, and defense. With decades of experience the FCA team has a proven record of successfully navigating these complex cases, achieving multi-million-dollar resolutions on behalf of their clients.
Halunen Law's dynamic founder and leader, Clayton Halunen, has spent his career righting wrongs.

Halunen is consistently selected to the Minnesota Super Lawyers list, was named to the "Top 100 Trial Lawyers" list by The National Trial Lawyers and has been twice recognized as an Attorney of the Year by Minnesota Lawyer. He was featured in the CBS television series 'Whistleblower,' for his successful representation of client Heidi Weber in her case against Globe University.
