Description

The cannabis industry is a multi-billion-dollar industry despite an enduring federal prohibition on marijuana. As of February 2024, 24 states and the District of Columbia have legalized cannabis for recreational use, and another 14 states allow medicinal use. This growth has brought about increased demand from businesses for cannabis licensing within legalized jurisdictions and a growing need by the industry for legal counsel in such areas as licensing, corporate formation, tax planning, banking, real estate, creditor’s rights, and more. Stay ahead of today’s burgeoning cannabis business. Register for this all-new program and develop the knowledge and skills necessary to counsel businesses and property owners in this heavily regulated space. Whether you already have clients involved in or exploring the cannabis industry, or advising a property owner considering leasing to a cannabis business, this program will update you on critical legal and regulatory issues you and your clients need to consider. Our experienced faculty will inform and provide guidance for expanding your practice as they address the following issues and more: - Legal overview - Professional responsibility concerns - Banking and tax issues - Licensing issues - Business and financing considerations - Real estate considerations - Evolving considerations and hot topics including deregulation efforts, SAFE banking, and more! Business and real estate attorneys, and general practitioners with clients directly in, related to, or interested in the cannabis industry will benefit from listening to this continuing education program from American Law Institute CLE.
