Arlinda Locklear is one of the most popular and richest Lawyer who was born on September 9, 1951 in Fort Bragg, North Carolina, United States.
Arlinda Locklear (born 1951) is an American lawyer of Native American origin from the Lumbee tribe. Locklear was the first Native American woman to argue a case before the U.S. Supreme Court and is noted as an expert in Native American law and tribal recognition litigation. She represented the Lumbee tribe in its quest for federal recognition from 1987 until 2010.
Among her other legal victories, Locklear recounts one of her proudest moments as stemming from a case for the Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation in Arizona, filed during the late 1970s. The reservation was dry and arid at the time, with the reservation suffering from lack of water due to legal issues with water rights. Locklear and the Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation won their case in 1990, and the land around the reservation has since been “in bloom and cultivated”.

Locklear was born in 1951 to Edsel Locklear and Mary Elizabeth Revels, both members of the Lumbee. Locklear was born in Fort Bragg, and she spent most of her youth in Charleston, where her father worked with the navy. Every summer and during holidays, however, Locklear went to Robeson County, North Carolina, where her grandparents and other Lumbee tribe members lived. Despite her love of Robeson County, Locklear had regular experiences with segregation as a child. Those early experiences with discrimination – such as being made to sit in the “Indian” section of local movie theatres – compelled her to become a lawyer to help protect her people from acts of racism.
