For 90 years DGS has serviced clients in the Rocky Mountain West – this history has given us a wealth of experience in the field of Indian law.  Today, our attorneys represent tribes, tribal associations, and companies doing business with tribes in a wide range of matters. We have handled issues involving Indian lands throughout the West and Alaska, including New Mexico/Arizona (Navajo, Jicarilla Apache), Colorado (Southern Ute, Ute Mountain Ute), Utah (Northern Ute), Wyoming (Shoshone-Arapahoe), Montana (Blackfeet, Crow), and Nevada (Western Shoshone, Paiute).

We routinely represent companies operating on Indian lands concerning rights-of-way, access and other surface use disputes, royalties, severance and other taxes, tribal regulation, cultural resources, permitting and Department of Interior approvals for agreements with tribes. We have also represented Indian Tribes in a wide variety of issues including commercial, real estate investment, governmental housing and regulatory issues.
