We represent government contractors and handle all aspects of public contract representation, including bid protests of contract awards, monetary claims and requests for equitable adjustments for breaches, changes, terminations, differing site conditions, and delays, among other things. We represent contractors before Federal boards of contract appeals, the U.S. Court of Federal Claims, the General Accounting Office and in Federal District Courts.
We handle suits against government agencies and officers for tortious conduct, unfair business practices, review of administrative regulations and actions, and constitutional issues, taking advantage of special exceptions to the doctrine of sovereign immunity, which normally provides protection to the government from lawsuits.
We also handle the specialized area of intellectual property suits against the government in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims, which is the venue for patent and copyright infringement actions against Federal agencies. We are at the forefront of suits against the Government, and taking advantage of split in circuit authority, have secured favorable relief by suing Federal agencies in Federal district courts for unfair competition under the Lanham Act.
