Know Your Rights, Know Your Power, With Cannabis Defense Attorney David Welch

“People in West Hollywood are selling a lot of cannabis, but the people in Compton and Long Beach are going to prison for it. So there’s gotta be a way to do what the people in West Hollywood are doing and make it legal.”

– Defense Attorney David Welch

California’s green rush is in full swing and everyone wants a piece of the pie. But while a lot of rich Wall Street-types are trying to get their foot in the door to cash in on cannabis, everyone else — who for decades had been working under unjust, draconian laws — is being left high and dry. 

That can’t be allowed to happen, and David Welch is doing something about it. 

As a cannabis defense attorney, he’s helped many clients succeed. He’s even worked with BigMike, so he knows firsthand about all the key skills necessary to succeed in the industry — and he’s got three of them. On Ep. 59 of Business Outlaws, Welch tells the Outlaws about what inspired him to defend marginalized cannabis entrepreneurs. First, you need to have a long-term goal and strategy. But without the other skills, you won’t know how to strategize effectively.  

Tune in this week to learn Welch’s top-three skills you need to succeed in cannabis, how he’s helping cannabis entrepreneurs navigate the law, and what’s being done to offer folks a real path to obtaining the American dream. When you’re done listening to the episode, snack on this week's Business Edible to get even more insight from the Outlaws.
