Overview
“Modrall Sperling is a hallmark firm for reliable, efficient Indian Law advice. With a team of established veterans and rising stars, Modrall is the go-to-firm in New Mexico (and beyond) for Indian Law matters. It would be a mistake not to have them on your side.”1
Due to the sometimes competing jurisdictional, regulatory and tax implications of federal statutes, public land laws, tribal laws and government regulations, effectively doing business in Indian country presents unique challenges. Even operations which are not on Indian lands may require consideration of the interests and concerns of Indian tribes and other Native American groups.
Structuring transactions, gaining permits, negotiating effectively, and crafting agreements that maximize predictability and enforceability can be elusive in these transactions.
Modrall Sperling’s Native American law practice is nationally recognized by Chambers USA: America’s Leading Lawyers for Business. The firm engages lawyers with Indian law experience and strength in multiple practice areas to address complex challenges representing business interests in Indian country. That seasoned depth and strong relationships developed with Indian country communities has created an environment for sound and efficient client representation.
