Cannabis

McInnes Cooper provides quality legal services with a tactical approach to help existing stakeholders and new entrants realize opportunities presented by the rapidly growing cannabis market. Our cannabis group’s knowledge is rooted in experience with clients operating in the cannabis industry and other highly regulated industries. Our lawyers act for industry players throughout the supply chain and across related fields, including licensed producers, banking and financial institutions, government bodies, and emerging start-ups.

Our work spans the areas of corporate finance; mergers and acquisitions; employment and HR; litigation and class actions; property and construction matters; and insurance coverage issues. We continue to be at the forefront of evolving workplace considerations, as well as legislative developments from all levels of government.

We get in on the ground level with our clients to understand the key issues that impact organizations looking to invest in, finance, produce, manufacture, distribute or sell cannabis products. This approach allows us to apply our extensive and wide-ranging experience to nuanced legal issues in the cannabis industry.
