Public Entity Representation

Legal Representation for Public Entities in California

For experienced public entity representation, please contact Bryant & Brown, A Professional Corporation, located in Oakland. We have over 17 years of experience representing public entities and organizations across California.

Our legal services to public entities run the gamut from transactional work to litigation services. For example, we draft contracts and real estate templates for clients, as well as policies and forms. Among the specific types of agreements we prepare are:

  • Ground leases
  • Joint use agreements
  • Professional service contracts
  • Construction law and public procurement

Our firm has developed construction general conditions and special provisions for multi-million dollar projects across California. We have also provided claims avoidance counseling and defense for large capital programs involving complex construction and joint development projects.

We work hard to bridge the gap between citizens and public entities, by providing a common language they both understand.

At Bryant & Brown, our attorneys provide public entities with advice regarding compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and have worked with many of them to implement a CEQA environmental review process. They also assist clients with the solicitation of public comment on proposed public projects.

A Commitment to Building Stronger Communities

We have significant experience representing public boards and administrators in a broad spectrum of complex legal matters. We are well versed with the provisions of the California Public Records Act, the California Government Claims Act and other laws that govern the conduct of public entities in California.

At Bryant & Brown, A Professional Corporation, in Oakland, we work with public entities throughout California, including school districts, community colleges, universities, water districts, transit districts and special districts.
