Litigation & Dispute Resolution

Our litigation practice is centered on the aggressive representation of tribal interests in state, local, tribal, and federal courts across the United States. Our team also has extensive expertise litigating disputes before both federal and state administrative agencies, and has successfully resolved numerous matters through alternative dispute resolution (ADR) processes, including arbitration and mediation. While tribes often find themselves in court in a defensive posture and asserting sovereign immunity, tribes can also benefit from asserting rights and demanding recognition as plaintiffs in well pleaded actions. Whether prosecuting or defending claims opposite federal or state governments, or against private third parties, we remain steadfast in our singular goal to protect and preserve tribal sovereignty, no matter the case or tribunal.
