Our practice provides counsel on Government Contracts at all levels – Federal, State (Puerto Rico), and Local (Puerto Rico). Each jurisdiction has its own set of rules and procedures for procurement, requiring specific legal knowledge to navigate successfully. We assist businesses in understanding the requirements for contracting with various government entities in Puerto Rico and with the U.S. federal government (a key focus for clients in Washington D.C.).
Whether you are pursuing a contract with a Puerto Rico state agency, a municipality on the island, or a federal agency in Washington D.C., our team provides tailored legal guidance. We help you understand the applicable procurement laws and regulations, including specific requirements under Puerto Rico Acts that govern state and local contracts, and the FAR for federal ones. We prepare competitive proposals, structure joint ventures or teaming agreements, and navigate the specific processes of the government entities you wish to contract with, ensuring your approach is aligned with the relevant legal framework. Our goal is to help you identify and secure government contract opportunities that align with your business goals.
