CAnnabis Attorneys and Legal Services

The legalization of medicinal and adult-use cannabis in California and other states has resulted in a Green Rush of entrepreneurial pioneers and leading-edge business concepts.  This continuing erosion of cannabis prohibition brings with it tremendous opportunity for those willing to seize it, although that opportunity also comes with substantial risk.  While the cultivation, sale, and use of cannabis is now legal throughout large parts of the country, it is still federally illegal, creating a murky and potentially hazardous landscape for any cannabis business.  Furthermore, those cannabis businesses operating above board under state law face a shifting maze of regulations and cannabis compliance issues.

At Law Offices of James P. Marion, Esq. you are represented by lawyers who understand this unique and highly regulated space.  Since 2013 our attorneys have worked with many of the industry’s trailblazing innovators, including growers, dispensary owners, manufacturers and ancillary service providers.  Our cannabis clients can be found from San Diego and Los Angeles, to San Francisco and the Emerald Triangle, and in states from Colorado to South Carolina.
