Legal Services

A Massachusetts government authority is seeking a qualified legal firm or attorney to provide ongoing advice, counsel, and representation. The authority requires legal services to address matters involving its retirement system, including the evidentiary review of disability retirement applications and related issues. The selected vendor must also represent the authority in appeals before the contributory retirement appeal board and handle investment management agreements and related documents. The contract period will span seven years, and the performance of all legal work will occur offsite. Eligibility is strictly limited to onshore organizations based in the United States. The authority is accepting digital proposal submissions via email or through their online portal. No specific budget is disclosed, as the authority is currently looking for proposals to determine the cost of these services. Key dates and specific evaluation criteria are not detailed in the procurement notice.
