Folarin Adebayo
Attorney, retaliation claims
Folarin represents people who were demoted, cut or fired after they reported something. He starts with a calendar.
Before he practiced law Folarin managed a hospital’s human resources office, so he has been in the meeting where a decision about someone gets made. He now sits on the other side of it.
He builds retaliation cases from dates: when you reported, who knew, what changed next. He joins a client’s case when the question is whether they were punished, not only whether fraud occurred.
What he takes
- Retaliation claims
- Back pay and reinstatement
- Severance and exit negotiations
- Timelines and deadlines

What he asks first
Folarin asks three things in the first call: the date you reported, the date something changed, and the name of the person who decided. Most of what follows rests on those.
He is blunt about deadlines. A retaliation claim can be lost by waiting, so he will tell you the dates that matter on the first call and put them in writing.
He handles severance talks too, because a person who has been pushed out needs both a path and a paycheck.
