Tony Munter

Tony Munter heads the False Claims Act and Whistleblower Reward practice at Price Benowitz, LLP in Washington, D.C., focusing on whistleblower and qui tam matters. He handles cases under the federal and state False Claims Acts, the IRS Whistleblower Law, and whistleblower programs administered through the Securities and Exchange Commission and Commodity Futures Trading Commission. His work also intersects with employment and retaliation issues when clients may have both workplace claims and potential whistleblower reward claims arising from the same underlying conduct.

Tony received his JD from Massachusetts School of Law at Andover and his Bachelor of Arts from McGill University. His legal training supports a practice that requires careful analysis of statutory reporting programs, government procedures, fraud allegations, and the sequencing of related legal claims. Over more than two decades of practice, he has also taught other attorneys about the practical requirements of False Claims Act cases and the international application of whistleblower laws.

Before working at Price Benowitz, Tony developed a national False Claims Act practice at Kohn, Kohn & Colapinto, LLP. His work included expanding whistleblower claims beyond traditional healthcare matters to allegations involving financial institutions. He has handled claims involving mortgage and financial fraud, defense contractors, and healthcare providers. At Price Benowitz, he created a qui tam practice that included advising employment lawyers on procedures for pursuing False Claims Act matters alongside employment or retaliation claims.

Tony Munter is licensed in Washington, D.C. and Massachusetts and is admitted in several federal courts, including the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals. He is also involved with organizations focused on employment law and whistleblower advocacy. His practice helps individuals and referring counsel evaluate whether reported misconduct may fit federal or state reward programs, identify procedural requirements, and coordinate whistleblower issues with related employment disputes or government investigations.
