Contract Appeals

Williams Mullen’s Government Contracts attorneys are fully prepared to pursue contract appeals from the Contracting Officer’s adverse action in the appropriate Board of Contract Appeals or the United States Court of Federal Claims (“COFC”) when efforts to resolve contract claims at the Contracting Officer level are unsuccessful. We also represent our clients in appeals before the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit—the so-called “Supreme Court” of litigation under the Contract Disputes Act.

Contract appeals at the Boards and the COFC are full-fledged litigation with discovery and pretrial motion practice; however, these actions also are governed by unique procedures that arise from their statutory and regulatory underpinnings. The contract attorneys at Williams Mullen know this road, and have traveled it many times. We draw on our vast experience on both the Government and the contractor side of these actions to develop efficient and effective litigation strategies. We know when to fight and when to settle, and we know how to work a case to our client’s best advantage.
