Cannabis Law

Is your business interested in possessing, growing, or selling medical marijuana? Are you a patient interested in a prescription for medical marijuana?

We resolve medical marijuana issues concerning vendor contracts, construction, “green cards,” corporate formation, non-profit status, zoning, and the Arizona Department of Health Services regulations on medical marijuana.

Here is a quick rundown of Arizona’s main medical marijuana laws:

  • If you have Alzheimer’s disease, Lou Gehrig’s disease, wasting syndrome, cancer, chronic pain, Crohn’s disease, or another qualifying health condition, you are permitted to have two and a half ounces of usable marijuana in your possession.
  • Proposition 203 protects seriously or terminally ill patients from state prosecution for using limited amounts of marijuana at the basis of their doctor’s recommendation.
  • You are also allowed to grow no more than 12 marijuana plants in an enclosed and locked facility.
  • You must be a registered medical marijuana user to enjoy the protections under the law. If you are unauthorized to possess marijuana and are caught with it on you, you could face some of the toughest laws and penalties in the United States.
