11 City of Sunny Isles Beach RFP No. 19-02-01 March 4, 2019 • Legislative Representation. We have decades of experience in lobbying the Florida Legislature and state agencies, both offensively and defensively, on behalf of public and private entities. Many of our public law attorneys began their careers as staff to the Florida Legislature, Governor's Office and State agencies, providing our clients with a unique perspective on the most efficient means of meeting their legislative goals. We maintain close relationships with local delegations and political leadership. • Procurement. We provide legal counsel relating to all aspects of procurement, including assistance in the preparation of bids, RFP's and proposals; contract negotiation; bid protests; appellate review and contract disputes. • Public Finance and Taxation. With respect to public finance and taxation, we have represented issuers and underwriters in a variety of local government financings, including dependent and independent special districts. The Firm developed these skills initially while serving as the Orange County Attorney during the 70s and 80s. Since that time, the Firm has represented governments, businesses and individuals in thousands of federal, state and local matters. Technical Approach As mentioned, GrayRobinson will implement a team approach designed to maximize communication and responsiveness without over-staffing. As your primary point of contact, Tom Loffredo will handle oversight of the work done for the City of Sunny Isles Beach and will ensure the overall delivery of satisfaction and value. To the extent a legal matter might require the assistance of other GrayRobinson team members listed in this Response, we believe our team approach will allow us to accomplish three critical objectives in representing the County: (1) provide quality legal services; (2) maintain the flexibility necessary to respond to problems swiftly and thoroughly; and (3) facilitate communication and accountability. To assure this, before any new work is undertaken, workloads and schedules of all attorneys and support staff on our team are reviewed. GrayRobinson believes in the quality of the work we produce, not the quantity. We are committed to the quality representation of each of our clients and can assure the City of Sunny Isles Beach of our availability as well as accessibility to timely address your needs. In addition to the team’s own expertise, Tom will have the ability to call upon the vast experience and qualifications of all GrayRobinson attorneys and consultants. The attorney members of the team come from various professional backgrounds, including government, private industry, and law firms. Accordingly, there is no legal matter which GrayRobinson would not be able to handle on behalf of the County. Quality, Value & Cost Control GrayRobinson leverages the latest advances in e-mail, audio, web and video conferencing, intranet and extranet technologies allowing us to work as one legal team with instantaneous access to vital data and documents. We extend this same “virtual office” environment to the City - giving you access to your legal team and the information you need from any location in the world. The GrayRobinson Extranet provides designated clients secure access to matter-specific documents.
