Alabama State and Local Government Law Practice

State and Local Government

Government clients have unique and special needs. There are rules, regulations and constraints applicable to public sector clients that simply do not apply to the private sector. Representing governmental clients requires a keen awareness of the legal implications of not only governmental decisions but also the manner in which decisions are made. That awareness also extends to the protections available to government clients and their employees—protections such as immunity and damage caps. Bishop Colvin is engaged in providing advice, counsel and support to our government clients everyday and have experience dealing with local boards of education, city governments, the State of Alabama, universities, utility boards, planning commissions, and related bodies and groups.
