About

Provided by Blank Rome LLP

Market-leading government contracts practice based in Washington, D.C. One of the few national government contracts practices with the experience and bench strength to handle the most complex matters for the biggest clients -- including government contractor M&A (we're one of a handful of firms with this integrated experience).

Known for bet-the-company dispute resolution and litigation, compliance and enforcement, False Claims Act cases, major deals, counseling on billion-dollar defense programs, and bid protests.

Client Service Principles:

Our decades-long record of achievement for our clients is built upon an unwavering commitment to our client service principles: fostering strong client relationships; excellence; engagement and collaboration; and investing in diverse teams.

How We Stand Out:

Represent contractors in all industries, but have deep experience in the defense, aerospace, healthcare, maritime, technology, and professional services sectors.

Focus exclusively on government contracts matters, guiding sophisticated clients as they navigate their most complex matters. We're supported by the resources and complementary practices of a large, national law firm – including corporate/M&A, IP, white collar, government investigations, litigation, and many others.

Achieved success for clients on high-profile, large-dollar, precedent-setting cases before key legal venues such as the U.S. Government Accountability Office and the U.S. Court of Federal Claims.
