Navigating a dynamic, heavily-regulated industry

The legalization of cannabis for medical and recreational use in many states presents a wealth of opportunities in a new market, but with an added layer of complexity. Taxation is much different in the cannabis industry than in a traditional business. Heavy regulation and the different levels of acceptance between federal and state governments require careful examination of cannabis accounting practices, certifications, licenses and federal, state and local tax information.
