    The panelists will review the governing legal framework, applicable case law, and common contractor practices, followed by a discussion of scenarios illustrating the rules and considerations when determining whether certain legal costs are allowable and responding to audit questions about those costs. The panelists will bring perspectives from experience in private practice, government, and as in-house counsel with government contractors.
    At the end of this session, attendees will be able to:
    • Identify the key FAR Part 31 cost principles, and related essential case decisions, controlling the allowability of legal costs in a variety of contexts.
    • Understand relevant federal agency allowability and audit guidance as applied to legal costs.
    • Apply the relevant framework provided by the cost principles and case law to the allowability of legal costs in both counseling and litigation settings.
