The cannabis and hemp industries are rife with challenges unique to the industry, and it is important for companies and individuals to align with counsel who have been practicing in this space for decades. Due to delayed  acceptance by the federal government, most banks and traditional financial institutions continue to  not lend to cannabis entrepreneurs and enterprises. Therefore, it remains  vital to secure capital from non-traditional sources while still maintaining airtight legal contracts.

A significant number of  cannabis and hemp entrepreneurs tap private funding to start their ventures. Private money can come from savings, friends and family, or hard money which can be easier to access; however, increased risk accompanies these funding options. It is not unheard of for individuals to lose their life savings or encumber themselves via the high rates of hard money loans when they  find themselves in a difficult position when a cannabis venture fails. Our attorneys are realistic about funding needs and can assist in  mitigating risk by structuring deals to insulate visionaries and their funders.

Contact one of our California cannabis venture capital law firm specialists today by phone at (310) 912-2960 or online to discuss your funding needs, so we can help set you apart.
