About the Program

In this session of our Winning Combinations webinar series, Meghan Douris from Seyfarth’s Construction group and Zach Jacobson from Seyfarth’s Government Contracts group will explore key legal considerations when negotiating government subcontracts in the construction industry. The program will cover essential topics such as flow-down requirements, indemnity and risk allocation, disputes and claim pass-throughs, and termination clauses. Attendees will gain practical strategies to draft and negotiate subcontracts that safeguard their legal and business interests while maintaining compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR). Whether you’re a prime contractor or subcontractor, join us for actionable guidance to support successful and compliant government contracting.
