I am proud to teach Business Law to CUNY/BMCC students with a business concentration.

Teaching "Finance and Cash Flow for a Cannabis Business" in the NYU School of Professional Studies Cannabis Certificate Program

We are focused on the exciting and emerging US and global cannabis and psychedelics industries. Our experience runs from startups to venture capital, going public transactions, mergers & acquisitions, resolving business disputes, and patent prosecution, licensing and disputes. We also act as “outside general counsel” to growing companies not quite ready for a full-time in-house counsel. Our team is determined to achieve the best results to help our clients chart a path to growth and success. And we have decades of experience doing just that. We like to ask clients to think of us as their legal “gatekeepers.” We have a wide network of attorneys covering all areas of expertise and geography who have a similar philosophy and approach to fees. While the firm’s main focus is on cannabis and psychedelics, our lawyers have great experience in a variety of industries and remain active in representing all types of entrepreneurial companies and their investors and advisors.

Skip Intro Advisors was conceived to address a need: growing cannabis and psychedelics businesses have been forced to seek out legal, strategic, finance and M&A and regulatory advice from many different players — often of inconsistent quality, cost, and responsiveness. The Skip Intro founding team was inspired to combine A-list pros from the cannabis and psychedelics industries with mainstream movers and shakers to join forces, level up, and meet demand. This extraordinary squad brings focus, talent, and business acumen to this vital space, to address all business needs in a single, reasonably priced, one-stop shop. The booming cannabis and psychedelics markets waits for no one, regardless of challenges on the legal front, the pandemic, or otherwise.

The firm's leadership, and outside observers like the Harvard Business School, believe this culture is truly unique among large law firms, and helps account for the firm continuing to prosper throughout changing economic and industry conditions.
