    Product Description

    The first practice manual on cannabis law for the Massachusetts legal community, this book provides not only Massachusetts-specific expertise, but also national insight and practical perspectives in this burgeoning area of practice. Authored by experts who represent and advise cultivators, manufacturers, retailers, micobusinesses, cooperatives, laboratories and research facilities, the book guides practitioners through uncharted territories related to licensing and its application process, zoning and municipal land use issues, corporate structuring and operations, taxation, business policy and its regulatory framework, hemp and cannabinoid business development, and the impact of federal cannabis, cannabinoid and hemp law and policy on commerce and employment.
