Jane conducts confidential internal investigations into allegations of wrongdoing related to nuclear safety, including investigations into allegations referred to licensees by the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). She represents nuclear industry clients in connection with investigations conducted by the NRC’s Office of Investigations and in NRC Early ADR proceedings. Jane also represents clients in connection with Occupational Safety and Health Administration investigations into alleged retaliation against employees for raising nuclear safety concerns, and before the US Department of Labor in nuclear whistleblower proceedings.

She represents clients in both litigation and settlement, and has advised clients in connection with more than 60 spent fuel damages claims.
