AI Contract Overview
Frederick County, Maryland, through its Circuit Court and Office of Procurement & Contracting, is soliciting proposals from qualified, licensed attorneys or law firms to serve as Family Law Attorneys providing legal advice and information to self-represented litigants in family law matters. The primary objective is to enhance access to justice and promote fair outcomes for families navigating the court system without direct legal representation. The contract will have an initial one-year term starting around May 15, 2026, with the option to renew annually for up to six additional years at the County’s discretion. Services will include assisting litigants with understanding family law and court procedures, helping prepare legal documents such as petitions and parenting plans, advising on filing and trial preparation, and making referrals to legal aid and social services. Attorneys must maintain daily communications via email, confirm case statuses, and comply with applicable federal, state, and local laws, including confidentiality requirements under the Maryland Public Information Act. The solicitation requires attorneys to hold a Maryland law license in good standing, have a minimum of three years practicing family law, and meet background and training requirements, including quarterly security training and annual background checks. The County reserves the right to inspect the contractor’s personnel, equipment, and business records to ensure service quality. The proposal evaluation process is best value-based, emphasizing technical merit (weighted 60%) including work plan, qualifications, references, and legal standing, followed by price evaluation. Award decisions may involve negotiations and best-and-final-offer submissions. Proposals must be submitted electronically via the OpenGov portal by April 1, 2026, and include detailed technical and price volumes, affidavits, certifications, and a Certificate of Good Standing. The contract is non-exclusive, allowing the County to procure similar services from other providers. Payment will be made based on submitted invoices with required contractor and contract information, and termination may occur with 30 days’ notice or for non-appropriation of funds. No packaging, shipping, or federal FAR clauses are applicable, as this is a local government service contract focused on legal assistance to disadvantaged litigants.
