Budget estimate

$200,000 – $500,000

The budget for this opportunity is not explicitly stated in the document. However, considering the scope of work and the fact that it's a legal services contract for a county government, the budget could be substantial. A rough estimate for the budget could be in the range of $200,000 to $500,000 per year, depending on the number of cases handled, the complexity of the cases, and the hourly rates of the legal firm. This estimate is based on the assumption that the legal firm will provide a team of experienced attorneys and support staff to handle the various legal matters related to child protective services and adult protective services.
