Experience

Alejandro L. Sarria focuses his practice on all aspects of government contracts law, with a particular emphasis in the areas of bid protests and internal investigations and compliance.  Mr. Sarria’s bid protest experience includes successful prosecution and defense of bid protests actions before the Government Accountability Office (GAO) and the United States Court of Federal Claims.  His internal investigation and compliance counseling has assisted both small and large companies with complex cost and pricing issues, compliance with federal reporting requirements, and voluntary disclosures to federal agencies.  He also has experience negotiating subcontract agreements for federal contractors.

Mr. Sarria graduated from The George Washington University Law School, where served as the Senior Articles Editor for The Public Contract Law Journal and interned for the Honorable Judge Shelby Highsmith, United States District Court, Southern District of Florida.   As an undergraduate at The University of Florida, he worked as a research assistant at The Brechner Center For Freedom of Information where he assisted in responding to media inquiries on First Amendment and FOIA issues.

In law school, he published a note that examined the role of public procurement reform in a democratic transition in Cuba and suggested the adoption of a procurement system based on the UNCITRAL Model Law.
