AKWESASNE — The Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe has two new Tribal Court Legal Advocates.
Recently, Deborah Bush, program manager, and Shelley Jacobs, domestic violence/sexual assault advocate, graduated from the National Tribal Trial College with a Certificate in Tribal Court Legal Advocacy.
The 6-month course is sponsored by the United States Department of Justice and enables graduates to practice law and represent clients in Tribal courts.
Bush and Jacobs’s intensive training enables them to now represent clients in Tribal court divorce, child custody, child support, visitation, domestic violence protection orders and victim rights cases.
