Enhance your competitiveness and minimize compliance risks with help from our experienced procurement attorneys

At Chico & Nunes, P.C., you’ll find a team with extensive expertise dealing with state and local government procurement laws and regulations

From assisting with advocacy and compliance, to challenging procurement decisions through protests, dispute resolution, and litigation, our Chicago-based procurement attorneys stand ready to share practical advice and effective strategies regarding every area of government procurement law.

Our services include
  • Negotiating and drafting contracts and agreements
    We help clients negotiate and draft prime contracts as well as agreements for joint ventures, teaming arrangements, and mentor protégé relationships. We help ensure equitable contract terms for our clients.
  • Team building
    We facilitate consultants and contractors in forming teams to respond to solicitation opportunities—with a special focus on connecting prime contractors with MBE/WBE/VBE/DBE/BEPD vendors.
  • Navigating agency bid incentive programs
    We help bidders identify and fully understand available bid incentives, strengthen their bid submissions, and improve their chances of success.
  • Preparing responsive bids and proposals
    We assist clients with the preparation of bids or proposals to ensure responsiveness to solicitation requirements. We also coach clients to prepare them for evaluation committee interviews.
  • Offering “Contracting 101” courses
    We offer Contracting 101 courses for clients and their staff in order to ensure that they are aware of terms and conditions that may impact performance or the ability to recover costs in case of a dispute.
  • Bid protests and challenges
    We guide and counsel our clients in challenging procurement decisions, from unfair bid requirements to post-award challenges to improperly issued determinations.
  • Advising government contractors
    We help our clients stay compliant with guidance on contractual performance issues, diversity inclusion, regulatory compliance, audits, and special investigations, including those by Inspectors General.
  • Partnering with white collar counsel
