Your Cannabis Team

In the cannabis industry, many entities are faking it until they make it. You don’t want your compliance advisor to be one of them. PorzioCS isn’t.

Our team is led by Aida Sanchez, a former Jersey City homeland security official and longtime consultant to local governments and private businesses who has secured multiple operational cannabis licenses from New Jersey. A winner of Jersey City’s Iconic Woman Award, she is backed by the full resources of PorzioCS, which understands how to support businesses in highly regulated industries. In the cannabis field, that begins with gaining real-world experience. Our team stands ready to work for clients of all sizes, including—and especially—the individuals and small businesses looking to get their first start.

L Leadership The leader of PorzioCS’ Cannabis service area, Aida Sanchez, has extensive experience in the cannabis industry and has secured multiple operational recreational licenses from the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission. She brings a practical manner that achieves results, a talent for nurturing the growth of new entrants to the legalized cannabis industry, and an aptitude for the technical writing required by the cannabis application process. With a background in emergency management and homeland security, Aida also has extensive experience with security and technology systems. She is backed by the entire PorzioCS team, including public safety officials, and an extensive network of contacts in the industry.

R Regulatory Support Supporting businesses in highly regulated industries like cannabis is in the DNA of PorzioCS. Our team can help your business shift to meet the demands of the changing market; identify and analyze potential new business lines in New Jersey and beyond; comply with federal, state, and municipal mandates; maintain licenses; and many other compliance challenges.

For instance, we can introduce you to our parent law firm Porzio, Bromberg and Newman, to help with issues relating to human resources (HR), including recruitment, retention, and compliance with employment laws. Additionally, we help clients stay up to date on governmental affairs and the ever-changing political landscape and the impact of legislative changes on their business operations through our relationship with Porzio Governmental Affairs. Data privacy and technology are also important issues in the cannabis industry, and PorzioCS can provide guidance on data privacy compliance and technology solutions that can help businesses streamline their operations and stay ahead of the competition. O One-Stop-Shop: Resources Beyond Licensing Winning in the cannabis industry requires more than a mastery of licensing and regulatory issues. To succeed, businesses must navigate business, and governmental issues as well. To help clients navigate these issues, we offer a full spectrum of services that go beyond strict licensing and regulatory compliance matters.
