Arnold & Porter’s Government Contracts & National Security Practice Group is seeking a mid-level associate for the Washington, D.C. office.
Arnold & Porter’s Chambers/Legal 500 Band 1 (market leading) Government Contracts & National Security team has a broad mix of litigation, investigation, export control, cybersecurity, mergers and acquisition, and counseling work. Some examples of the group’s recent work include: litigating multi-billion dollar, complex contract award challenges for large aerospace and defense companies and handling the negotiation of novel agreements with the government (including OTAs, CRADAs, and TIAs). We also frequently advise both recipients and subrecipients of grants (including the Inflation Reduction Act and CHIPS Act) in the interpretation of grant requirements and compliance, as well as federal audits, enforcement actions, and other controversies with awarding agencies.

While we expect the associate will be involved in all aspects of the practice, including litigation and investigations, applicants with an interest in and working knowledge of work related to mergers, acquisitions, and other types of transactions involving government contractors (e.g., experience with due diligence, asset and stock purchase agreements, and novations) are especially encouraged to apply. All applicants should have excellent academic credentials and references.
