What do you need a lawyer for? Corp docs? or consulting for the laws re: marijuana?
- dpieri 12y agoBoth. Most likely a startup lawyer for standard corp docs and a marijuana lawyer for state marijuana laws. The main issue is finding a startup lawyer who is willing to take on a startup who is serving the marijuana industry.
- jesusmichael 12y agoYou don't need a lawyer for corporate documents. Legalzoom works fine... California C Corp (if your exit is acquisition and Delaware Corp (if your exit is public). Most VC's have their own army of lawyers and if you need a lawyer when you have a offer in hand, then any will do. Those two lawyers will be very different. A lawyer familiar with the drug laws will understand a jurisdictions ordinances and the states criminal code. Probably better to get a consultant... give him some equity for subject matter expert.
