Legal Services

This award is for a legal‑services procurement by Washington County Public Schools. The solicitation (RFP 2023‑02) sought hourly rates for partner, associate attorney, paralegal, and of‑counsel services. Four firms submitted rates, and the contract was awarded to Carney, Kelehan, Bresler, Bennett & Scherr LLP, whose partner and associate rates are $300/hr and paralegal rate $150/hr. No scope of work, contract term, budget ceiling, or performance dates are disclosed in the excerpt, so prospective bidders would need the full RFP package for details. • Awarded to a single law firm based on competitive hourly‑rate submission. • Rates range from $100/hr (paralegal) to $450/hr (partner) across competitors, establishing a market benchmark. • Critical contract specifics (duration, total value, renewal options) are absent and must be obtained from the full solicitation.
