Perkins Coie is proud to announce the launch of “Cannabis Law: A Primer on Federal and State Law Regarding Marijuana, Hemp, and CBD,” published by the American Bar Association, authored by various Perkins Coie Cannabis Law attorneys, and edited by Barak Cohen, chair of our Cannabis Law industry group, and Michael Bleicher. Though the cannabis industry is growing and its use is becoming more accepted in society, the industry will continue to face many challenges that will impede its growth and make it difficult for investors and businesses to operate successfully. It is important for stakeholders to be on top of the constantly changing laws and put themselves in a position to easily adapt to them.

Until now, there has been no single reference to guide cannabis lawyers through the full continuum of legal challenges in the industry. This treatise fills that gap from a sophisticated perspective by highlighting key issues in more than a dozen practice areas and covering the impact of cannabis law from U.S. state and federal, as well as Canadian, enforcement and regulatory agencies.
