Indian Law Practice Group
The law firm serves as general counsel for the Passamaquoddy Tribe’s Indian Township and Pleasant Point Reservations, handling its constitutional, corporate, education, litigation and re-development matters. Both Reservations have dynamic economic development plans underway, including, among other projects, terminal sitings for liquefied natural gas (LNG), housing projects and a formal expression of interest to participate in the re-development of a 3,300 acre naval air station in Southern Maine slated for closure by the Defense Department.
The federal Maine Indian Land Claims Settlement Act and the Maine Indian Land Claims Implementing Act recognize the Tribe’s status as a sovereign nation. The law firm’s expertise in governmental matters provides a perfect match for the varied issues confronting the Tribe.
