We are committed to promoting justice for Native Hawaiian people and the preservation of indigenous culture. The rights of Native Hawaiians are enshrined in Hawai'i's Constitution and statutes, but they are nonetheless constantly imperiled by development pressure and the outside world's strategic and recreational interests in our Hawaiian islands. Our attorneys have federal and state court experience litigating claims under the Natural Historic Preservation Act (NHPA), the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), statutes governing kuleana lands, and other state and federal laws.
