  1. Medical Marijuana Attorney AbnerChernis

  2. The California medical marijuana (“MMJ”) laws provide a defense to criminal prosecution for certain personal and collective (group) marijuana-related conduct. The two MMJ laws are the Compassionate Use Act (1996), commonly referred to as Prop. 215, and the Medical Marijuana Program Act (2003), commonly referred to as SB 420. These laws effectively legalize, under State law, certain cultivation, transport and distribution activities where prescribed steps are followed. The difficulty is that there remains some ambiguity, disagreement and misinformation about the scope of the MMJ laws and the activity that is legal under those laws. AbnerChernis, LLP makes it our business to keep abreast of changes in the MMJ laws and arm our clients with that knowledge. It is our prime directive to keep our client out of harm’s way, and we believe an educated and informed client is critical to the equation. Overview

  3. Regardless of whether you are an individual who simply wants to use medical marijuana personally and understand how many plants you can cultivate legally, or you are seeking to cultivate MMJ for a collective or operate a dispensary, and earn money in the process, AbnerChernis, LLP can counsel you about your rights and how your desired activity can be done legally under the California MMJ laws. AbnerChernis, LLP are sophisticated thinkers and creative strategists adept at solving complex problems, and bring that training and sophistication to MMJ as it continues to evolve and raise new and cutting-edge challenges and opportunities. Our clients include storefront dispensaries, mobile collectives, landlords, edible manufacturers, cultivators, trade groups and primary caregivers. We have even drafted model ordinances for cities regulating cultivations and dispensaries. Overview Contd.

  4. If you are considering collective cultivation activity, either with a large group of people, or where money will be exchanged, it is recommended to form a legal entity for the collective and register it with the California Secretary of State. AbnerChernis, LLP has developed an expertise in assisting clients in the formation of MMJ collectives, and addressing all of the challenges that arise between the formation and operational stages. Our approach is not cookie-cutter or one-size-fits all; at AbnerChernis, LLP we consider each client as having unique concerns and needs and once we understand those issues we craft a solution to meet the client’s goals. Collective/Non Profit Formation

  5. Formation is much more than filing a registration or incorporation document with the State. There are several different types of legal entities, including several different forms of non-profits, that may be utilized for MMJ business activities, depending on the client’s unique goals and desired activities. The entities have differences from one another which may be important to you. AbnerChernis, LLP can remove the uncertainty in the law, answer your questions, and allow you to move forward with confidence. While we do offer packages to clients to meet their budgets, we can also perform specific tasks as needed and in an efficient way.
