We have unparalleled experience and relationships – including partnering with regulators in the development of Arizona’s rulemaking process for the adult use marijuana program. Our expertise is so highly regarded that regulators in other states seek our advice when developing their own cannabis programs.

To ensure we understand a regulator’s perspectives, we constantly communicate with them on topics ranging from new or modified rules, regulatory enforcement, to the latest industry innovations.

To resolve compliance issues early on, we routinely engage in informal settlement processes and dispute resolution proceedings with regulators. To date, we have an excellent record of negotiating comprehensive consent agreements – with not a single one of our clients losing their cannabis license.

We help clients prepare and submit all applications related to cannabis operations and facilities, including site and floor plans. We also help clients maintain comprehensive policies and procedures for retail, cultivation, manufacturing, and processing operations. And we develop employee handbooks and HR procedures so that workers understand all state-specific requirements, enabling businesses to remain compliant.
