Business Law
The great thing about economic booms is that, abruptly, there is a lot more opportunity.
The legal cannabis industry is multiple economic booms occurring simultaneously. In each state, from the moment it became legal for adults to purchase cannabis an entire economic sector came into existence. Instantly the was a large and competitive market not simply for cannabis but for talent, investment, new products, improved processes, and solutions to business problems unique to cannabis.
And all-of-a-sudden countless people plateaued in stale, steady-does-it industries discovered that cannabis is a new industry where ideas are welcomed. People stuck on the outside looking in at those industries — because they didn’t go to the right college or have an inside track on the right internship — discovered they could have a future in cannabis where they are valued for their energy, their willingness to learn and their desire to help build something new.
We welcome these cannabis pioneers to our offices every day. Many decided to invest their skills and ambitions in this new industry after witnessing the relief medical cannabis brought to someone they love. We understand them. Every Cultiva attorney chose cannabis rather than a traditional area of law.
