Description

The Township seeks one attorney or law firm for a one-year appointment as Township Attorney for calendar year 2027. The fixed annual retainer covers attendance at approximately 24 regular council meetings, meetings and communications with municipal officials and staff, preparation of resolutions, ordinances, contracts and other legal instruments, routine document review, status reports, legal advice, and periodic training on government-related legal issues. The attorney must be licensed and in good standing in New Jersey, have at least 10 years of legal experience, including at least five years in government and municipal law, and identify the individual attorney who will provide the services if proposing as a firm. Proposers must also quote an hourly rate for extraordinary legal services, including litigation, court and administrative-agency representation, and labor matters. The response must include qualification and experience information, three client references, proof of professional liability coverage that will be in place to protect the Township, and the specified completed exhibits and certifications. The selected proposer must provide a certificate of insurance naming the Township as an additional insured and execute the Township's contract; certain business-registration and affirmative-action documentation is due before award or contract execution rather than with the proposal.
