About this award
Baker Donelson Law Firm, a Memphis-based law firm specializing in federal legal services, was awarded a definitive firm fixed-price contract by Veterans Integrated Service Network 9 (VISN 9) on February 15, 2021, valued at $76,637.15, with a ceiling value of $76,637.15 and performance extending through September 30, 2025. The contract provides legal representation services for involuntary commitment proceedings at the Memphis VA Medical Center, including representation in competency evaluations and related healthcare law matters affecting veterans. The award was issued without a set-aside designation, despite the originating pre-solicitation posted in December 2020 being designated as a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business set-aside opportunity.
This contract represents one component of Baker Donelson's ongoing engagement with VISN 9, which also includes a broader Indefinite Delivery Contract awarded on October 1, 2025, with a ceiling value of $280,665.00 extending through September 30, 2030. The definitive contract award referenced in this notice appears to represent a de-obligation of excess FY25 funds from the firm's existing contract portfolio. Baker Donelson has maintained federal contractor status since May 2005 and has established specialized expertise in providing legal counsel to the Department of Veterans Affairs on involuntary commitment and healthcare law matters.
