Q. What is the most valuable benefit members get from joining your Section that they can’t get anywhere else? 

WSBA members are increasingly likely to encounter an Indian law issue in their practice, given the presence of Indian tribes and tribal people throughout Washington. Washington is home to 29 federally recognized Indian tribes, over 7,000 square miles of tribally owned land, and nearly 100,000 Native American people. The activities of tribal nations span the entirety of Washington state and touch nearly every sector of the economy, and tribal members reside both on- and off-reservation. The Indian Law Section strives in a variety of ways to help WSBA members ensure they can competently address legal issues involving Indian tribes and tribal members.
