65: Securing Retail Space for Your Cannabis Business (Episode 1 of 2)

Obtaining retail space for any small business is a big move. There are many issues to consider, and working with a knowledgeable real estate lawyer helps to avoid surprises down the road. This is especially true for a cannabis business for two principal reasons. First, cannabis businesses are highly regulated at the state and local level. Second, cannabis generally remains illegal at the federal level. A standard retail space lease is just not going to suffice. So, the question is, what does a cannabis business need to do and watch for when obtaining a retail space?

McGlinchey attorneys Douglas Charnas, Perry Salzhauer, and David Waxman address this question and more during the latest episode of More with McGlinchey.
