California Marijuana Business Lawyer
The Adult Use of Marijuana Act (AUMA) legalized recreational marijuana in the state of California. With the passage of this law came the need for specialized business licenses for cannabis businesses across the state. Retailers, cultivators, testing facilities, and other distributors must meet specific requirements to ensure that the marijuana products consumed by Californians are safe.

Why Do You Need a Riverside Marijuana Business Attorney?
Marijuana dispensaries, farms and distribution centers are popping up all across Los Angeles, San Diego, Riverside and San Bernardino. Since recreational marijuana is now legal, these businesses must adhere to various Federal, State and local restrictions and regulations. These regulations restrict how marijuana can be grown, sold, transported, and even consumed. Businesses who fail to follow these regulations can face serious penalties and legal consequences.

Understanding the AUMA & Your Cannabis Business
The Adult Use of Marijuana Act (AUMA) legalized, taxed, and regulated the marijuana industry in California. As a marijuana business owner, you must keep up with the ever-changing rules, laws, and regulations and ensure that your business remains compliant. Non-compliance in the marijuana industry is taken seriously, and business owners can face serious legal fines and consequences.
Before starting a marijuana business in California, you must understand the AUMA and the various licenses you may need to begin. You must also understand the zoning issues and environmental requirements that could adversely affect your business and its ability to open. San Diego, Riverside, and Los Angeles all have specific restrictions on zoning and land use. If you violate these restrictions, you could lose your cannabis license altogether.
From the application to the operation of your marijuana business, our lawyers will be there to offer guidance, support, and resources.
