Partner of Whistleblower Law Collaborative
Bruce brings the drive, focus, and tenacity of his time at the U.S. Justice Department to the representation of his whistleblower clients in false claims actions around the country and in official matters pending before the SEC, the CFTC, and the IRS.
Bruce Judge is a member of the Whistleblower Law Collaborative (WLC) based in Boston, Massachusetts. Prior to helping launch WLC, Bruce spent more than 20 years as prosecutor with the Department of Justice, investigating, charging, and trying individuals and companies for financial crimes, obstruction of justice, public corruption, money laundering, and other federal offenses.
Since 2018 Bruce’s practice has been devoted to representing whistleblowers who file complaints under the Federal and State False Claims Acts, with a particular emphasis on health care fraud and cybersecurity fraud. Bruce also represents clients who file whistleblower claims with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Commodities Future Trading Commission, and the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network.
Bruce is a frequent lecturer on cybersecurity regulations and requirements involving government contractors. Bruce was the keynote speaker at the 2025 CS2 Reston conference on cloud security and compliance. Bruce was one of two presenters on cybersecurity fraud actions under the False Claims Act at the national 2025 conference presented by The Anti-Fraud Coalition. Bruce was also a co-presenter at the 2024 Federal Bar Association panel convened to evaluate the first three years of enforcement actions pursued under the Department of Justice’s Civil Cyber Fraud Initiative.
In May 2025, Bruce was named as one of the Lawdragon 500 Leading Global Cyber Lawyers. Almost every other recipient of that designation works with a large multinational law firm representing corporate clients. Bruce is the only member of the group of 500 leading cyber lawyers who exclusively represents individual whistleblowers.
Bruce has also been a regular presenter at law enforcement training sessions across the country. In February 2025, Bruce led a half-day presentation for the Council of Inspector Generals in Washington D.C. on best practices for federal agents conducting investigations based on tips received from private citizen whistleblowers.
Bruce has also been a guest lecturer and taught courses on the False Claims Act, criminal law, trial advocacy, and legal ethics at the University of Michigan Ross School of Business, the Michigan State University College of Law, the University of New Hampshire Franklin Pierce Law Center, and Andrews University, among other institutions.
