On January 28, 2010, the ABA Forum on the Construction Industry will hold its MidWinter Conference in San Francisco, CA entitled "Government Construction Contracting". This program will provide instruction by many of the country's leading government contracting and construction law experts in the most common and most cutting edge issues facing participants in projects owned or funded by federal, state or local governments. The topics will include hot issues in contractor claims against the federal government; tricky issues on publicly-funded, privately-owned projects; government claims for defects discovered after project acceptance; mandatory disclosures, compliance programs, and false claims; the legal issues surrounding federal and state governments' use of design-build; and legal ethics issues unique to advising government construction contractors.
