Attorney-Advisors provide legal advice on a variety of legal issues, to include statutes, regulations, and policies that govern the programs and operations of the Department; OIG audits; reviews, investigations, and inspections; procurement and acquisition law; general administrative law; employment and personnel law; and legislative affairs.
The incumbent engages in important legal policy making determinations that significantly affect OIG operations, consulting with Department's Office of General Counsel where necessary.
However, the incumbent does not provide legal advice or engage in policy-making determinations that bind or affect the Secretary or other officials of VA as such matters fall within the responsibility of the Department's Office of General Counsel.
The incumbent's responsibilities include sensitive liaison activities with high-level program officials, the Department of Justice (DOJ) and other law enforcement agencies, and Congress.
As an Attorney-Advisor (General), you will:
Provide expert legal advice and guidance on issues relating to the review and coordination of OIG audits, reviews, investigations, inspections, and other initiatives designed to prevent or detect inefficiency, waste, fraud, abuse, and mismanagement in VA programs and operations, including routine and dynamic technical legal assistance for planning, conducting and reporting the results of OIG investigations, inspections, reviews and audits.
Collaborate with attorney colleagues in the office and the OIG's nationwide staff of auditors, analysts, criminal and administrative investigators, and healthcare inspectors.
Conduct legal research and analysis on complex, difficult, and controversial legal issues concerning the application of criminal, civil, and administrative laws and practices; civil and criminal remedies and enforcement mechanisms; and the Inspector General Act of 1978, as amended.
Play a critical role in the operational planning and report writing activities of OIG work projects.Provide expert legal advice on all aspects of the federal procurement process within the OIG, including reviewing and providing opinions on documents and tasks associated with acquisition procedures, source selection and contract administration, such as market research, solicitations, statements of work, contract interpretation, and claims/disputes that require working knowledge of government contract law, including the Federal Acquisition Regulation.
Provide assistance to Federal prosecutors and other DOJ attorneys in preparation and conduct of criminal and civil proceedings involving VA incumbents, incumbents of other government agencies, and other matters implicating the interests of the OIG or Department.
Maintain cooperative working relationship with all Department components, other OIGs and government agencies, representatives of Congressional committees, and other entities associated with the operations of the OIG.
