Lawdragon.com interviewed Senior Counsel Allison Herren Lee and Of Counsel Andrew Feller about their distinguished careers at the SEC and the launch of Labaton Keller Sucharow’s Whistleblower Representation Practice, which they co-chair. Allison previously served as SEC Acting Chair and Commissioner, while Andrew served as Senior Counsel in the SEC’s Division of Enforcement.

In the interview, Allison and Andrew explore the critical role whistleblowers play in advancing investor protection as “partners in law enforcement,” the challenges individuals face when reporting misconduct, and the benefits of having experienced counsel to guide and protect whistleblowers throughout the process.

They also discuss how their decades of experience at the SEC inform the guidance they provide and why whistleblowers are more valuable than ever amid an evolving enforcement landscape. Drawing on their extensive regulatory and enforcement experience, Andrew notes that “there's a lot of scrutiny on whistleblowers” in the current environment. “It’s more important than ever to provide a port in the storm for them,” Allison explains.

Allison and Andrew look forward to building a world-class practice at Labaton dedicated to protecting whistleblowers, advancing corporate accountability, and strengthening the integrity of the financial markets. The new practice builds upon the Firm’s more than 60 years of experience championing the rights of investors.

09/11/2026

On the 25th anniversary of September 11, 2001, we pause to remember the lives lost and to honor the extraordinary courage and selflessness of the first responders who ran toward danger to help others. We also recognize the countless individuals who stepped forward in a moment of unimaginable crisis to offer help, comfort, and support. Our thoughts remain with the survivors and all those who lost loved ones on that tragic day.

Twenty-five years later, the horror of September 11 remains etched in our collective memory, as do the courage and strength with which Americans responded—coming together to support one another, serve their communities, and carry our nation through its aftermath. On this day of remembrance, Labaton pays tribute to all those who served and sacrificed, and to those who continue to carry forward the spirit of resilience and compassion that define our nation.

We will never forget.
