The Office of the General Counsel (OGC) serves as the chief legal advisor to DCAS, providing legal and strategic counsel across all twelve lines of service. OGC is organized into four primary legal units: Procurement and Operations, Real Estate Services, Human Capital and Workforce Oversight, and Policy and Compliance. Together, these units provide expert guidance on a broad range of matters critical to agency operations and citywide functions. OGC&rsquo;s legal portfolio includes advising on civil service, labor and employment, and disciplinary matters; negotiating and reviewing real estate transactions; overseeing procurement compliance; and guiding policy, risk, and audit processes. The office also manages litigation related to landlord-tenant disputes, legislative review, Freedom of Information Law (FOIL) requests, and legal matters tied to fleet administration, energy, and facilities construction. In collaboration with Corporation Counsel, OGC supports special legal matters that require litigation or further Charter-mandated review, ensuring the City's interests are protected and upheld.
