Logan Kemp

Associate

Logan Kemp represents government contractors and grantees in bid protests, Contract Disputes Act claims, and complex procurement disputes before the U.S. Court of Federal Claims, GAO, the boards of contract appeals, and federal district courts.

Logan has successfully argued multiple cases before the U.S. Court of Federal Claims in high-stakes procurement disputes. He was part of the team that secured a victory in a bid protest challenging a federal procurement valued at more than $1 billion, including presenting oral argument in that matter. In a separate case, he argued a closely watched dispute involving a novel issue of federal procurement law, in which the court ruled in his client’s favor. He also has experience litigating Contract Disputes Act claims, including a significant case involving complex issues of federal procurement law.

Logan represents contractors in False Claims Act matters and related government investigations. His experience includes assisting clients in responding to government inquiries, conducting internal investigations, and managing matters that may result in disclosures. He has led the document review process in an investigation that resulted in a voluntary disclosure to the government.

In addition to litigation, Logan advises contractors in significant disputes with federal agencies. He has served as a lead negotiator in multi-million-dollar contract disputes, helping clients preserve claims, structure requests for equitable adjustment, and position matters for favorable resolution or litigation. He also counsels contractors on evolving regulatory and policy developments affecting federal procurement and grant programs. His experience includes advising on compliance with federal small business regulations and counseling contractors and grantees following the closure of the U.S. Agency for International Development.

Prior to entering private practice, Logan served in several government roles that inform his practical approach to disputes and advocacy. He interned at the U.S. Court of Federal Claims, gaining insight into the Court’s decision-making process, and interned for a Congressional leader, providing firsthand exposure to the legislative process.

Logan joined Nichols Law following a clerkship with the Civilian Board of Contract Appeals, where he clerked for judges deciding contractor claims under the Contract Disputes Act and matters arising under FEMA’s Public Assistance Program.
