Gano Lemoine recognizes that the fledgling industry of legal cannabis is, at its core, business law – with a heavy layer of extra governmental regulation — plus the complication of the state laws directly conflicting with federal laws. Particularly because of that extra layer of regulation, legal marijuana growers, processors, and retailers – and those companies that work with them, must carefully operate as formal businesses to comply with the developing regulatory scheme. Lawful marijuana businesses must also navigate the state/federal conflict of law issues carefully – often considering problems or potential problems that other businesses simply do not face.
