Cannabis Law

California’s rapidly changing cannabis laws and regulations require up-to-date legal advice. Michel & Associates’ attorneys have the knowledge and experience to guide you through these challenges. 

No area of the law has seen more change than California’s nascent medical and recreational marijuana laws. Being successful in the cannabis space today isn’t just about getting licenses and starting up a shop or grow. California’s regulatory environment requires cannabis operators to understand the unique and often daunting challenges they face regarding labor law compliance, vendor agreements, acquisition and divestment strategies, cannabis distribution chains, and consumer protection law compliance. The unusual interplay between the current paradigm of federal prohibition and state legalization also raises legal concerns that require an understanding of business, regulatory, employment, and other laws beyond the knowledge of the typical attorney. 

For the last decade, we have counseled municipalities, patients, growers, distributors, edible manufacturers, landlords, dispensaries, and property owners on complying with California’s laws, regulations, and policies governing cannabis businesses. We know the players in the industry. We understand what has and what hasn’t worked since the legalization of recreational use. And our attorneys have experience litigating civil and criminal matters for cannabis businesses.
