Government Contracts

We help clients obtain, retain, and fulfill the requirements of government contracts.

With government occupying a larger share of the country’s economy, government contracting has assumed a more important role for the business community. The Cavanagh Law Firm, P.A., is experienced in helping clients compete for, obtain, and comply with the requirements of government contracts.

Being a government supplier brings with it a host of government legal, regulatory, and contractual requirements. We have experience in a wide array of matters through which government agencies monitor the accountability and transparency of work for the government, including:

Preparing and defending affirmative action plans
Handling OFCCP audits
Defending audits, investigations and litigation regarding prevailing wage compliance under the Davis-Bacon Act, Service Contract Act, or other laws to assist clients in requirements for contracts funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA)
Assisting in compliance with E-Verify use by federal contractors
Drafting ethics and conflict of interests policies for compliance with government contracting requirements
Assisting clients in qualifying as minority or women-owned business
Defending companies that are the subject of government audits, compliance reviews, and investigations
Defending contractors facing debarment proceedings and preserve their eligibility to be awarded government contracts
Management training in adopting and implementing policies to achieve compliance with government contracting requirements
