Scott Williams founded Whistleblower Advocacy Law after a career that took him from the executive suites of major media and technology companies to the front lines of international whistleblower cases. He has a JD and MBA from the University of Florida, a BS in Marine Biology from the University of Miami, and 15 years of operating experience at organizations including CNN, AT&T, Time Inc., and the Weather Channel.
For the past five years, Scott has focused exclusively on representing whistleblowers, transparency advocates, investigative journalists, and open-source intelligence communities in complex, high-stakes matters. He understands how large institutions operate, how they respond to legal threats, and how to use the law to hold them accountable.
We work on a flat fee model for many services. That means no surprise invoices, no billable hour anxiety, and a legal partner who is motivated to resolve your matter efficiently rather than extend it.
Education and Bar Admissions
