Practice/Industry Group Overview

Recognizing the unique and complex issues impacting Native American interests and those conducting business with Native Americans, we offer the services of a well-rounded Indian Law practice.

We understand the increasingly diverse goals of tribes and tribal enterprises and offer complete business and litigation services to Native Americans and tribal governments. The Indian Law practice affords our Native American clients and their business partners high quality legal services in business transaction, litigation, economic development, natural resource and environmental scenarios. We provide the advice, representation and advocacy that help tribal interests make the most of tribal resources.

We also represent various clients, including financial, commercial and industrial entities, that finance, partner and cooperate with Native American tribes on and off Indian lands. These entities are engaged in the development of tribal interests, including energy, taxation, gaming and employment. We ensure that our clients remain aware of the continually evolving rules governing tribal transactions and jurisdiction.

Our expertise includes a broad array of issues, and we are committed to meeting our clients' needs in an efficient, cost-effective and timely manner. Whether a client is seeking tribal counsel or exploring commercial, transactional or other relationships with Native American partners, we can assemble the right team for the job.
