     We are rendering this opinion in connection with the Registration Statement
on Form S-3 (the "Registration Statement") filed by MAXIMUS, Inc. (the
"Company") with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), on or about the date hereof.  The
Registration Statement relates to up to 200,000 shares (230,000 shares if the
underwriters' overallotment option is exercised in full) of the Company's Common
Stock, no par value per share (the "Shares"). We understand that the Shares are
to be offered and sold in the manner described in the Registration Statement.

     We have acted as your counsel in connection with the preparation of the
Registration Statement and are familiar with the proceedings taken by the
Company in connection with the authorization, issuance and sale of the Shares.
We have examined all such documents as we consider necessary to enable us to
render this opinion.

     Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been
duly authorized and, when issued and delivered by the Company against payment
therefor at the price to be determined pursuant to the Resolutions, will be
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

     We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement and to the reference to our firm under the caption "Legal
Matters" in the Prospectus filed as part thereof.

     It is understood that this opinion is to be used only in connection with
the offer and sale of the Shares while the Registration Statement is in effect.



                                                  Very truly yours,
