Mark S. Zaid is a Washington, D.C. based attorney who has been representing whistleblowers, particularly high-profile national security clients, for 25 years. Since 2009, he has annually been designated a Washington, D.C. Super Lawyer, and in 2020, the Washington Metropolitan Employment Lawyer’s Association named him “Attorney of the Year” for his work on the Intelligence Community Whistleblower’s case. Earlier this year Washingtonian Magazine named him as one of D.C.’s Most Influential People in 2021 for Legal Intelligentsia. As the National Law Journal once wrote, “if Agent Mulder ever needed a lawyer, Zaid would be his man.” He teaches the D.C. Bar CLE class on federal whistleblower claims, and in 2017, Mr. Zaid co-founded Whistleblower Aid, a non-profit law firm that provides pro bono legal representation to whistleblowers, particularly in the national security arena.
