The Cannabis Industry in Transition: Rescheduling, Banking Constraints, and Financial Distress Risks

Virtual

The evolving legal landscape surrounding the cannabis industry continues to present significant challenges for attorneys advising cannabis businesses, lenders, investors, and other stakeholders. While potential federal rescheduling has generated renewed attention, cannabis remains subject to a complex intersection of federal and state laws affecting banking access, commercial transactions, insolvency proceedings, and creditor remedies.

In this CLE webinar, Agustin Rodriguez will provide a substantive review of the legal and financial issues affecting the cannabis industry amid changing federal policy and ongoing regulatory uncertainty. The program will examine the legal implications of cannabis rescheduling efforts, banking and financing constraints, the effect of rescheduling on bankruptcy and restructuring considerations, and practical approaches for identifying and mitigating legal risks when advising cannabis-related clients.
