American Indian Probate Reform Act Legal Guide provides an affordable, unique opportunity for Tribes and their members to gain important access to legal education. This Guide thoroughly informs readers about the inner workings of the national probate system which oversees the inter-generational passage of Indian lands (applies except to the Five Civilized Tribes, Osage and in Alaska). There are helpful tips placed generously through out, and the 'fill-in' model Last Will and Testament (compliant under the provisions of American Indian Probate Reform Act) tops off this portion of the Guide.
Helen Nowlin, J.D. then discusses the intersection of Guardianship and the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA). It turns out that while ICWA was being built up as "change," its design allowed the continued exploitation of Indian families and children, for the benefit of state coffers and the adoption industry. Helen lays out why.
Tribes concerned over recent ICWA litigation should consider implementing Helen's alternate system which focuses on the use of voluntary Guardianship as a counter balance to state removal actions. In fact, every parent whether a tribal member or not will benefit from reading this information! Her full analysis on this topic is available upon request and by consultation.
Gain personal empowerment with a purchase and have access to information simply unavailable elsewhere. This Legal Guide stands out as the buy of the year!
