About the company

California Indian Legal Services, Inc. (CILS) is a long-standing non-profit law firm dedicated exclusively to Native American rights, providing free and low-cost legal services to California tribes, tribal organizations, and Native American individuals throughout the state. Registered in SAM.gov since 2013, CILS is a tax-exempt corporate entity that has been awarded multiple federal grants primarily from the Department of Justice's Office on Violence Against Women. The organization focuses on supporting and protecting tribal governments, tribal sovereignty, and individual Native American rights through comprehensive legal services and advocacy.

CILS has received several federal grant awards that primarily address violence against Native American women and support tribal legal systems.

Through these awards, CILS provides comprehensive civil and criminal legal services to victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking, with recent grants totaling up to $800,000. The organization offers legal analysis, document drafting, evidence gathering, direct representation, and hearing preparation for victims in multiple California counties. Additionally, CILS has worked as a sub-grantee with Montana Legal Services Association, engaging in projects that promote safe and self-governing tribal communities, build capacity in tribal courts and law enforcement, and provide legal advice on jurisdictional matters.
