NY Cannabis Business Attorney/NY Marijuana Business Lawyers
With its recent legalization of marijuana for recreational use, New York has become a significant part of America’s growing, vibrant cannabis industry.
As NY marijuana lawyers we’ve been working with cannabusinesses since New York State approved medical marijuana dispensaries for registered organizations in 2016, and have developed a reputation for expertise in the areas of cannabis, hemp, CBD and medical marijuana enterprises.
We’ve helped growers, cultivators, processors, cooperatives, distributors, retail dispensaries, on-site consumption businesses, cannabis delivery businesses and other cannapreneurs navigate New York’s highly-regulated cannabis space with smart, business-savvy legal counsel. As NY cannabis attorneys, we understand the legal and practical requirements around zoning and land-use, product design, production, marketing, sales, channel distribution, customer support, and other functions critical to the business.
We also understand what it takes to achieve commercial success in the cannabis arena. We can help you think through the future of your business and identify challenges and opportunities you may not have considered.
When my business partner and I were in the process of starting our business, we contacted Craig for information about the various types of formation, the positives and negatives of each, and subsequently to write our Operating Agreement. Not only did Craig take the time to answer our questions relating to the agreement, he offered a great deal of worthwhile advice as to many other aspects of starting a business.
