Description

The Texas Education Agency seeks qualified law firms or attorneys to provide as-needed legal advice and representation concerning charter school and other agency-owned real estate. Work may include advising on ownership and title issues, foreclosure and judgment-debtor matters, premises liability, property-title transfers, deed review, and drafting or reviewing documents for purchases, sales, leases, easements, restrictive covenants, and excess-proceeds assignments. Counsel may also attend meetings and hearings, including legislative hearings, and provide related strategic guidance. Services are nonexclusive, and the agency does not guarantee a minimum volume of work. Respondents must demonstrate relevant real estate and governmental legal experience, meet the stated attorney qualifications, provide three similar-project references, and submit proposed fees within the stated hourly caps. The response must include the requested technical and management information, completed solicitation attachments, conflict disclosures, evidence of good standing or licensure, and a malpractice insurance certificate. The resulting contract is anticipated to run for four state fiscal years, subject to appropriation; the anticipated start is September 2027.
