California’s rapidly evolving cannabis laws and regulations require knowledgeable, up-to-date legal guidance. Michel & Associates’ attorneys have the expertise to help clients navigate the complex and often challenging legal landscape of both medical and recreational cannabis.
Success in California’s cannabis industry involves far more than obtaining licenses or opening a business. Operators must address labor law compliance, vendor agreements, acquisition and divestment strategies, distribution chain management, and consumer protection law. The unique tension between federal prohibition and state legalization adds additional legal considerations that demand a comprehensive understanding of business, regulatory, and employment law.
For over a decade, Michel & Associates has advised municipalities, patients, growers, distributors, edible manufacturers, landlords, dispensaries, and property owners on compliance with California’s cannabis laws, regulations, and policies. Our attorneys understand the industry, recognize what has succeeded and failed since recreational legalization, and have experience litigating both civil and criminal matters on behalf of cannabis businesses.
