Contracts and agreements with tribal entities
The sovereign nature of Indian nations, regardless of size, can complicate the contracting process for the other party to the agreement. To learn how to protect your interests and avoid surprises in tribal casino operations or sales agreements, contact a casino contract lawyer in Nevada or California today.

Sovereign immunity for independent contractors
Sovereign immunity laws make Native American legal entities unto themselves. As an independent contractor, you will be protecting your rights under a judicial system that is significantly different in many respects than the U.S. or state court system of laws.
Specific legal issues you will need to consider when signing an agreement with a tribal entity include:
- Limited waiver of immunity
- Choice of law and jurisdiction
- Arbitration clauses
- Authority of the tribal signatory
