Bid Proposals and Protests

Bid Proposals and Protests, Federal, State and Local Governments

Bid proposals are formal documents businesses submit to obtain contracts, primarily with government agencies. Weh a bid is unsuccessful or there are concerns about the bidding process, businesses may file a protest to challenge the decision.

We prepare bid protest and proposal documents, and we represent our clients during any legal proceedings.

Legal advice is the application of abstract principles of law to the concrete facts of the client’s case in order to advise the client about what they should do next.

Our attorneys ensure that your proposals are fully compliant and strategically prepared—and if a protest becomes necessary, we advocate aggressively for your interests.
