Potential matters may include First Amendment, wage-and-hour, and employment-related defamation claims. Proposers must describe their firm's background, relevant experience, assigned attorneys and their qualifications, backup procedures, special services, conflicts-management procedures, relevant public-sector clients, and certain litigation or legal-proceeding history. Responses must include proposed hourly rates, attorney names and bar numbers, resumes, relevant expertise, a signed cover letter, and required City contracting compliance forms. The anticipated contract may last up to three years and may be awarded without discussions or through further negotiation.
