Career
Clients turn to Meghan to assess these challenges, negotiate complex construction contracts, determine appropriate and creative litigation strategies, and achieve resolutions that address their long-term goals. In addition, she assists clients with general business matters that have an impact on long-term goals and day-to-day operations.
Meghan assists clients through the unique legal complexities in the construction industry, particularly the challenges associated with constructing heavy civil infrastructure and high-rise buildings. She draws from her experience as assistant general counsel for the New York City Department of Design and Construction and her depth of knowledge from her Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Associate certification.
Meghan also helps organizations understand and secure government contracts in the construction and service industries, including a focus on AbilityOne providers. She is skilled at handling all types of government contract law issues: assisting with bid protests, helping clients navigate the Request for Equitable Adjustment and claims processes, and litigating bid and size protests before the US Court of Federal Claims, US Government Accountability Office, US Small Business Administration, and state and local agencies. For instance, Meghan successfully defended a bid protest in the US Court of Federal Claims to preserve a $100 million dollar contract.
