Companies that do business with the US government face unique challenges in investigations related to their government contract compliance. The complex regulatory regimes imposed on federal contractors present contractual and regulatory risks with potentially high stakes: non-compliance can impact not only the contract at issue, but also the company’s reputation with valued customers and its eligibility for future work. Whether prompted by government inquiries, claims by third parties, whistleblower reports, or routine internal compliance monitoring, companies involved in government contract inquiries need counsel who can assess the full range of legal risks and guide them in dealing with a variety of government stakeholders.
