Cannabis (Legal Marijuana) Law
- What is Cannabis Law?
Cannabis Law is a new area of law that encompasses Criminal, Civil, Corporate, Commercial, Intellectual Property, and Real Estate Law. In order to begin a cannabis business, one must form a collective. A collective is a group of Qualified Patients who have joined together as members to cultivate and distribute medical marijuana. A Qualified Patient is one who has doctor's recommendation to use medical marijuana. Once these patients form a group, a collective is formed; however, the State of California encourages each collective to incorporate as a mutual benefit non-profit corporation with the Secretary of State. This non-profit status ensures that the collective is not engaged in a profit-making enterprise.
- Our attorneys have unparalleled knowledge in the new field of Cannabis Law. They stand ready to answer your questions about business or personal medical marijuana legal matters that our client's rights are protected and enforced. In striving to overcome the barriers our client faces, however, we do not lose sight of the fact that our client requires personal individualized attention. We take the time to explain relevant law and procedure to our client, and to carefully detail legal option available to him or her.
