Partner

Giora Ungar heads the firm's Tender Law Group. Giora has over 35 years of extensive experience in civil and commercial law and in representing clients in complex cases before courts of all instances, legal tribunals, arbitration panels and other forums.

Giora specializes in civil and administrative law and over his many years of practice he has become highly knowledgeable and has earned a strong reputation for guiding clients through all stages of negotiations, contracts and commercial transactions in different projects, and especially complex infrastructure and construction projects, while particularly focusing on tender law, and representation in litigation proceedings pertaining to these fields.

Over the last twenty years, Giora was involved in the litigation of, and/or the writing of, and/or the advising on, an enormous amount of tenders in a diverse range of areas, such as construction of sea ports, airports, large-scale infrastructure projects (roads, pavements, sewage, piping, tunnels), complex construction projects (office buildings, parking lots, parks, advanced industrial complexes, power stations, water treatment plants, sewage treatment plants and industrial and regular waste recycling facilities), and tenders for providing other types of services such as public transportation, design of computer systems, pedagogical services, signposting and outdoor advertising, legal services, accounting services, economic and financial consulting services, and many more.

Giora, with the assistance of his team, makes use of the experience he acquired, for the benefit of entities conducting tenders, and tender committees (which he assists in planning the tender process, formulating its conditions, and guiding the process to its successful completion, while optimizing the results and making the process shorter and more efficient), as well as for the benefit of clients who participate in other tenders (and whom he guides throughout the tender proceedings including examination of the tender's provisions, preparing the proposals and evaluating the results). When necessary, Giora also represents the tender committees and/or the bidders (depending on the case) in litigation proceedings regarding the tender.

In addition, Giora acts as a commercial arbitrator in the above mentioned fields.
