In addition we will have a legal expert, Steven J. Koprince, an associate with PilieroMazza PLLC, who practices in the areas of government contracts and small business law.   Mr. Koprince counsels clients in a wide variety of matters, including compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation and the unique rules and regulations governing eligibility and participation in the federal government’s programs for small, disadvantaged businesses, such as the 8(a) Business Development Program, the HUBZone Program, the Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business Program, and the Women-Owned Small Business Program.  Mr. Koprince understands the unique hurdles small businesses face in developing business relationships with other companies (like affiliation and the FAR’s limitations on subcontracting).  To that end, Mr. Koprince assists clients in creating compliant teaming agreements, joint venture agreements, subcontracts, and mentor-protégé relationships.
