Over the years, our firm has been advising numerous government companies and public entities on multiple aspects of their activity, including complex regulatory issues, large-scale tenders, administrative proceedings, litigation and ongoing activity. Among our clients are government authorities and ministries, government companies and leading public entities.
Steering clients through the intricacies of administrative law calls for more than just a solid understanding of the relevant legislation. With many years of dedicated service in this field, Goldfarb Gross Seligman’s litigation teams have been acting for public sector clients, addressing our clients’ most immediate challenges and long-term objectives, empowering them to move forwards with assurance.
Government ministries and companies, public sector officials, and major public entities deeply appreciate our profound legal knowledge, tailored counsel, and instinctive ability to successfully manage and resolve disputes across various forums, including administrative law courts and hearings, public review commissions, and parliamentary committees.
Our legal teams specialize in advising tender committees of entities publishing tenders, and often serve as outside counsel to Israel’s largest public entities in this regard. Over the years, our firm advised on some of the largest and most significant government tenders in Israel.
As outside counsel, we advise tender committees on a wide variety of matters related to the tender. Among others, our legal teams advise on the outline of the contract or tender, including whether there is an obligation to publish a tender and holding other competitive proceedings; advise on formulating the most appropriate tender strategy; draft documents and manage preliminary proceedings, requests for information (RFI) and pre-qualification (PQ); provide advice and guidance on formulating and drafting the terms of the tender, including the threshold, contract and commercial conditions; examine bidders’ proposals, including requests for additional information; providing legal opinions regarding various matters related to the tender; providing legal counsel and representation throughout tender appeal proceedings, as required; and providing ongoing counsel regarding the final contractual agreement and related legal matters, as well as representation in contentious proceedings as required.
