Plaintiff Trish Williams (in center) with her attorneys Chris Dolan and Anne Costin after jury issued verdict in the Wyndham whistleblower lawsuit.

On November 25, 2016, columnist Gretchen Morgenson of the New York Times profiled Patricia Williams who was wrongfully terminated after she blew the whistle on fraud at former employer, Wyndham Vacation Ownership, the nation’s largest timeshare company.
