Scott Crowell has practiced extensively in the area of Indian law since the late 1980s.  Scott received both his law degree and economics BS degree from Arizona State University.

For nearly four decades, Scott has been deeply involved in Indian gaming issues  at the state and federal level. Scott has served as lead negotiation counsel in compact negotiations on behalf of many tribes in several states. He has served as lead litigation counsel in numerous lawsuits over the application and interpretation of the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act including, but not limited to: Rincon Band v. Schwarzenegger, Spokane Tribe v. United States, and Maverick Gaming v. United States.
