About
Provided by Sheppard, Mullin, Richter & Hampton LLP
Sheppard’s Tribal and Native American Law team advises tribes, tribal enterprises, financial institutions and businesses on projects and disputes across the United States. With deep cultural knowledge and the resources of a full-service law firm, we deliver practical solutions that respect sovereignty while advancing economic and community goals.
We are particularly recognized for our leadership in tribal finance, where we have handled some of the largest casino credit facilities, as well as complex financings for healthcare, hospitality and renewable energy projects.
Clients value our ability to navigate the unique intersection of federal, tribal and state law, regulations and tribal sovereignty. Some of our attorneys have served as in-house counsel for tribal governments or at the U.S. Department of the Interior, giving us rare insight into both government processes and tribal perspectives. We also bring practical experience across industries, supporting projects such as renewable energy developments, sawmills, health clinics, hotels and resort complexes.
