Cannabis

There is perhaps no other industry garnering as much attention as the legal cannabis industry. The members of ALFA International’s Cannabis Practice Group have operated at the forefront of the cannabis industry since its inception and are recognized in their jurisdictions for their expertise in this ever-changing marketplace.

Medical and adult-use cannabis markets have been the primary focus of investment and government regulation but the changing laws relating to hemp and its derivatives are creating an even more expansive industry. As pioneers in cannabis law, our members regularly address issues of first impression, setting legal precedent that will remain in place for years to come.

Industrial hemp, adult-use and medical cannabis markets are attractive to investors and entrepreneurs. It is essential to have the right advice to navigate the complicated legal framework associated with these emerging industries. ALFAI’s cannabis attorneys advise clients appropriately when their businesses grow, process, and sell hemp and hemp-derived products throughout the country.

The cannabis attorneys have spent years building relationships with policy makers and industry stakeholders throughout the country to stay current in this ever-changing legal landscape. If there is an issue affecting a cannabis operator or an ancillary service provider, it is likely that our members have handled it.
