On February 6, 2025, Crowell & Moring presented a webinar, "The New Normal: What U.S. Government Contractors and Grant Recipients Need to Know About Terminations, Stop Work Orders, Tariffs, and the Path Forward in 2025."  In this webinar (available here), Crowell & Moring lawyers specializing in U.S. government contracts and grants addressed:

  • De-Scoping Contracts and Grants
  • Partial and Full Terminations for Convenience
