Responsibility Hearing Attorneys

Overview

Responsibility hearings are forums where a bidder is deemed nonresponsible and is afforded an opportunity to disprove this finding. A contractor whose bid is rejected based on a finding that it is nonresponsible is entitled to a responsibility hearing based on its right to due process. An adverse finding upholding a determination that a bidder is nonresponsible can be appealed by filing a Writ of Mandate in court.

We provide the legal expertise to ensure that responsibility hearings are properly prepared and filed.  Our extensive experience as responsibility hearing attorneys allows us to advance responsibility hearing claims strategically to maximize the likelihood of a rapid and substantial recovery.
