The New York City Department of Consumer and Worker Protection (DCWP) seeks a non-profit legal services organization to be the designated provider to deliver consumer protection legal support for the Centers. The selected legal services provider would provide legal support, including advice and guidance, limited counsel, and full representation, to Center financial counselors and clients with low and moderate incomes on legal issues including but not limited to student loans, lending violations or unjust lending practices, fraudulent or predatory debt collection, money judgements, bankruptcy, loan contracts review, and consumer protection law (“consumer financial legal issues”). It is preferable, but not required, that the provider would also be able to provide legal advice and guidance with Social Security Administration disability overpayments and other financial issues related to disability benefits
The anticipated term of the contract is July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2029. The proposed contract total budget for this negotiated acquisition is $497,859.00. DCWP received approval from the New York City Mayor’s Office of Contract Services (MOCS) to use a Competitive Negotiated Acquisition pursuant to Section 3- 04(b)(2)(ii) of the New York City Procurement Policy Board Rules (PPB Rules), as there are a limited number of vendors available and able to perform the work and it is not practical or advantageous to award a contract for these services by competitive sealed bidding or competitive sealed proposal.
