Despite diligent contract administration, claims and disputes can arise under government contracts. These conflicts are governed by specific rules and processes that differ from commercial contract disputes.
Our practice provides legal representation for businesses in claims and disputes related to government contracts. These can include claims for equitable adjustment, differing site conditions, constructive changes, or wrongful termination.
We assist clients in preparing and prosecuting contract claims against government entities seeking payment for additional work, resolution of contractual disagreements, or recovery of costs. We also defend clients against claims asserted by the government, including allegations of non-compliance or defective performance.
We represent clients in negotiations, mediation, and litigation before relevant tribunals that handle government contract claims and disputes, such as Boards of Contract Appeals or the Court of Federal Claims. This includes navigating the specific processes for claims under the Contract Disputes Act (CDA) for federal contracts and relevant Puerto Rico Acts for state/local contracts.
Our experience in government contracts and related litigation positions us to effectively advocate for your interests in resolving contract disputes in Puerto Rico and federally.
