How we helped
INDUSTRY
Hemp + Hemp Derivatives Industry
The hemp and hemp derivatives industry — including cannabidiol (CBD) and hemp-derived THC — is rapidly growing and offers enormous opportunity. At the same time, businesses face a complex combination of state, federal, and local laws and regulations. Clients need attorneys with industry experience and the knowledge of highly regulated industries to guide them toward their goals.
We work with companies that cultivate and sell hemp, as well as process, distribute, and sell hemp and hemp-derivative products. Our attorneys handle the full range of legal issues as clients enter or expand into the space, such as:
- Corporate and transactions: entity formation, corporate governance, capital raises, public and private securities offerings, licensing and partnership development agreements, venture capital and private equity, mergers and acquisitions, real estate transactions, and tax issues.
- Financing: structuring, negotiating and documenting complex financial transactions, and post-closing issues.
- Labor and employment: employment counseling, equity incentive, non-compete, and labor union agreements.
