Federal, state, and municipal contracts are different from other contracts for a variety of reasons:

  • They are subject to a high level of regulation to ensure uniformity and to curb misappropriation of funds
  • They are drafted by experienced governmental lawyers using past contracts as a guide
  • Contractual disputes with the government follow a unique process to give the governments special status
