Carl A. Gebo's primary area of concentration is litigation related to public contracts. For clients doing business with municipal, state and federal entities, he has protested solicitations at the General Accounting Office, United States Court of Federal Claims and state and municipal agencies, both pre- and post-award. These protests have involved improper sole-source awards, best-value determinations, OMB A-76 decisions, procurement integrity, multiple task orders and cost-realism analysis.

He has successfully represented clients who have been awarded contracts from federal and state agencies in the defense of those awards from protests by unsuccessful bidders. He has successfully defended awards challenged on the basis of improper evaluations, conflicts of interest, collusion, inappropriate conduct by government officials, among others.

He has also represented clients with claims based on the Davis-Bacon Act, constructive changes, defective specifications and violation of software license agreements in the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals and the United States Court of Federal Claims. He has prepared and successfully negotiated equitable adjustments and resolved disputes of government contractors.

His prior experience as a United States Army helicopter pilot and maintenance officer has given him substantive knowledge and experience on aviation-related product liability and personal injury litigation matters, which he handles as an adjunct to the Firm's Product Liability practice group.

Mr. Gebo is also active in the Grady High School Mock Trial Program.
