I am a Denver-based cannabis business attorney. I work with entrepreneurs along the entire spectrum within the Cannabis business industry – those interested in entering the Cannabis industry whether by buying an existing business or taring their own, seasoned Cannabis industry members with issues they face while operating, as well as Cannabis businesses trying to exit the industry. I say that I am a Cannabis business attorney, not only because Cannabis is the correct term for the plant, but also because I work with both licensed marijuana businesses who cultivate, manufacture or marijuana, as well as industrial hemp companies who cultivate, manufacture and sell hemp-derived (CBD) products. When counseling prospective Cannabis industry members, I also provide ongoing legal counsel and services including regulatory compliance, business formation, financing, obtaining and maintaining businesses licenses, preparing and negotiating commercial real estate leases and purchases, vendor and employment agreements, purchases and sales of cannabis businesses and assets, and nearly all other transactional or compliance issues a Cannabis business would face.

Aaron Abend is a software entrepreneur whose company helped academic medical centers apply clinical data from Electronic Health Records to medical research. His company, Recombinant Data, was acquired in 2012. In 2013, Mr. Abend became interested in autoimmune disease after being approached by a biotech with a new treatment for lupus. He declined that opportunity, but shortly after, his mother was diagnosed with Sjogren’s Syndrome (after living 10 years with classic symptoms). He discovered the poor state of knowledge about autoimmune diseases and decided to build a national registry modeled on the National Cancer Registry. He founded Autoimmune Registry Inc (ARI) in 2016 as a 501(c)3 dedicated to create a hub for research, statistics, and patient data on all autoimmune diseases. ARI operates a national database for patients who suffer from any autoimmune disease. Its mission is to reduce the time of diagnosis, support research, compute prevalence statistics, and establish autoimmune disease as a major class of disease so that it receives the awareness of the public, the attention of healthcare providers, and the appropriate funding needed to improve upon existing treatment protocols and disease management strategies. Mr. Abend earned an BA at Middlebury College, an MBA at Columbia University, and has studied Biomedical Informatics at Stanford University.
