Morrison & Foerster’s government contracts practice includes former Department of Defense government contracts attorneys who have served as key counsel on important government contracting matters.  We represent clients in the full range of government contract disputes, from small business-size protests to multibillion-dollar bid protests and contract claims. 

Our government contracts attorneys represent clients in a spectrum of industries, including aerospace, defense electronics, financial services, information technology, logistics support, shipbuilding and transportation with products and services purchased by federal, state, local, and international governmental entities.

We regularly represent companies that are either challenging or defending federal procurement procedures or contract awards in bid protest actions before the contracting agency, the Government Accountability Office, or the U.S. Court of Federal Claims, as well as in various international, state, and local venues. 

Our Government Contracts group represents clients in the preparation, negotiation, and resolution of modifications, requests for equitable adjustment, and claims related to their government contracts. 

We represent clients in alternative dispute resolution proceedings, and in litigation before agency Boards of Contract Appeals and the Court of Federal Claims.  We represent government prime contractors and subcontractors in federal or state court actions and ADR throughout the country when their commercial contract disputes involve interrelated government contract issues. 

We work with companies to develop, enhance, and implement effective business conduct and compliance programs to minimize risk and provide a mechanism for addressing problems when they arise. 

When needed, we represent clients in contractual, administrative, civil, and criminal proceedings.
