Doing business with federal, state, and local governments presents opportunities that often come with specialized contracting requirements, procurement rules, and compliance obligations. Peck Baxter advises businesses, contractors, developers, and other organizations on government contracts and public-sector transactions, helping clients navigate the legal requirements that accompany doing business with governmental entities.

Our attorneys assist with solicitations and procurement matters, bid and proposal requirements, contract review and negotiation, subcontracting arrangements, teaming and joint venture agreements, regulatory and contractual compliance, change orders, payment issues, contract modifications, and termination matters. We also counsel clients on representations, certifications, flow-down provisions, and other requirements that may affect government contractors and subcontractors.

When disagreements arise, Peck Baxter represents clients in bid and procurement disputes, contract claims, payment and performance controversies, investigations, and other matters involving governmental counterparties. Drawing on experience in corporate transactions, construction, real estate, regulatory matters, and complex litigation, we help clients evaluate risk and develop practical strategies throughout the contracting relationship.

From pursuing a government opportunity through contract performance and closeout, Peck Baxter provides business-minded counsel designed to help clients satisfy their obligations, protect their contractual rights, and build successful relationships in the public sector.
