Job Description
Taos Pueblo Partnership Staff Attorney - Native American Program 
Taos Pueblo, New Mexico
New Mexico Legal Aid (NMLA) provides civil legal services to low-income New Mexicans to promote family and economic stability, helping clients access food, shelter, security, and to preserve their unique cultural heritages. NMLA has locations throughout the state, including Santa Ana Pueblo, Albuquerque, Santa Fe, Las Cruces, Gallup, Roswell, Silver City, and Taos.
NMLA's Native American Program (NAP) provides free legal services - both civil and criminal - to eligible low-income Native Americans living on or near the 19 Pueblos and the Mescalero Apache tribe in New Mexico. In addition to cases promoting family and economic stability, NAP prioritizes cases arising because of someone's status as a Native American, including tribal and Indian law, estate planning involving tribal property, racial discrimination, and tribal criminal court cases. Much of NAP's caseload is comprised of cases in Pueblo courts, but the program handles poverty law issues coming up in other fora as well.
NAP does creative, challenging, and complex work in diverse client communities. We are looking for highly motivated candidates who are passionate and strongly committed to helping serve Native American communities, including developing effective team strategies to handle complex advocacy. The attorney shall be active in relevant bar and community activities. All NMLA staff attorney positions fall under a collective bargaining agreement.

The Taos Pueblo Partnership Staff Attorney will be dedicated to serving Taos Pueblo members and other Native Americans in the broader Taos Pueblo community. The attorney will provide advice, brief services, and occasional representation on legal issues impacting public health, such as matters related to health and safety, income and asset preservation, and other social determinants of health. Cases may be within the Taos Pueblo Tribal Court, other tribal courts, state court, or federal court. Beyond individual client services, the attorney will provide regular community education presentations and assist in the creation of pro se materials. The current term of the position is through December 2025, but NMLA and Taos Pueblo are hopeful to extend the project with future funding.
The Taos Pueblo Partnership Staff Attorney will receive the same mentorship, supervision, and office equipment as any other NAP Staff Attorney and will participate in weekly case staffing meetings with the rest of the NAP. The attorney will be able to connect applicants for services falling outside the scope or capacity of their work to other resources at the NAP, NMLA, and the larger legal community.
