Karshmer & Associates is committed to Indian self-determination and to providing Indian tribes and tribal organizations with the highest quality of legal services. Our attorneys have extensive Indian law backgrounds and have achieved substantial legal and legislative victories for their clients in a broad range of cases and issues arising in Indian Country since the 1970s.
Our experience involves representation of tribes and tribal organizations in Indian self-determination matters, self-governance, gaming, health law, water law, environmental law, employment law, tax law, federal recognition, land and water claims, natural resources and environmental issues, commercial and corporate matters, hunting and fishing rights, jurisdictional conflicts, housing, Indian child welfare issues, development of tribal constitutions and codes including tribal courts, and a wide variety of other legal matters involving tribes and tribal organizations.
We provide representation to our clients in federal, tribal and state courts, before Congress, before Federal and State agencies, and State legislatures. Our clients include tribes and Indian organizations in various regions of the United States. We have provided legal services for tribes of all sizes--from very small tribes to the largest (the Navajo Nation). We do not represent non-Indian interests, such as gaming developers or land developers, in dealing with Indian tribes. The firm strongly supports Indian preference and half of our associates are of Indian descent.
We are proud to assist Indian tribes and tribal organizations in determining their own needs and in making educated decisions about their futures. In doing so, we strive to recommend the most practical and cost-effective solutions to any problems our clients may encounter. Our long-term goal is to remain effective advocates for the Indian community, building on our combined experience of more than 70 years representing tribes and tribal organizations.
