Description

"The first to provide a professional legal overview of the American cannabis industry, The Cannabis Business provides actionable guidance on legal and business issues faced by cannabis companies today. A global, largely illicit market worth around $150 billion is slowly transitioning into a legal, regulated industry, but it is a challenging one, made even more difficult by the complexities and nuances of the law. Entrepreneurs, investors, some 300,000 employees, and most Americans who support legalization need a reliable guide to understand this new industry. This is that book, written by partners at one of America's top cannabis law firms that has been at the cutting edge of marijuana and hemp law and policy since the inception of the regulated cannabis industry. The book comprises three parts: an introduction to the national legal landscape and the federal legal risks associated with cannabis businesses; an overview of the many legal issues faced by cannabis companies; and an introduction to the nuts and bolts of getting a cannabis deal done. Professionals and upper-level students with an interest in cannabis business or policy, from lawyers and entrepreneurs and investors to farmers, will find this book a useful and empowering resource, written by those at the forefront of the industry"--
