Florida Medical Marijuana Lawyers
If you are reading this page, then you may already know that there is a new phrase in American Marijuana lingo…“the Green Rush.” Many individuals and companies have become rich since the widespread state-legalization of marijuana throughout the United States. The once illegal and taboo business of marijuana is now, not only more generally accepted, but also legal under some states’ laws. The legalization of cannabis throughout the United States has opened the doors of new business for many people to now make their fortunes during the “Green Rush.” The states are also benefiting; specifically, in January 2016, Colorado’s marijuana industry generated over $13 million dollars in tax revenue, a 54.8% increase in tax revenue compared to last year.
The attorneys at Shiner Legal Group Business & Commercial Lawyers have been on the front lines of the emerging marijuana laws and issues since the discussion of legalizing medical marijuana began in Florida years ago. On Tuesday, November 8, 2016, Floridians voted and the proposed Constitutional Amendment 2 was passed, legalizing marijuana for certain individuals suffering from debilitating medical conditions that qualify under the law. The proposed Florida Constitutional Amendment 2 allows Floridians who possess a medical marijuana card to obtain legal marijuana. There are currently 25 states that have legalized marijuana in some form, and four (4) states, including Washington D.C., that have legalized recreational marijuana.
Starting a Marijuana Business:
Throughout the country, states that have “marijuana use” laws have seen an explosion in employment and business growth, both in the direct marijuana industry, and in supporting industries. The marijuana industry has opened new areas of business and caused others to grow exponentially. With over 20 million people, Florida is currently the third most populated state in the country, and thus, Florida is poised to greatly benefit from marijuana’s legalization by way of tax revenue, small business income, employment opportunities, benefits to the medical community, etc. In short, the emerging medical and recreational marijuana industry has changed the landscape of business across the country. Shiner Legal Group Business & Commercial Lawyers has positioned itself to lead the legal issues related to, or associated with, marijuana in Florida. Currently David Shiner and the Shiner Legal Group Business & Commercial Lawyers represents several businesses that are involved in the legal marijuana industry both in Florida and out-of-state; this representation and involvement has led to Shiner Legal Group Business & Commercial Lawyers to start and pave the way for marijuana legal representation in Florida.
