At Hughes Law, our wide range of legal & consulting services includes:
DUII

Despite the fact that marijuana is legal in the state, possession of more than a certain amount of cannabis or derivative products is prohibited, and law enforcement has stepped up enforcement of marijuana-related DUIIs (Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants). Working with an experienced cannabis lawyer can mean the difference between preserving your freedom and spending time in prison.

Alcohol DUII

While hemp has long been cultivated for its durable fiber, it is also high in cannabidiol (CBD), which has potential medicinal benefits as a pain reliever and anti-inflammatory. Although a variety of CBD-based products are now commercially available, the Oregon Department of Agriculture strictly regulates hemp and CBD compliance. If you are considering a hemp business venture, you can rely on Michael Hughes’ experience as a hemp producer and cannabis lawyer.

Cannabis criminal defense

Judicial services

At Hughes Law, we routinely defend clients against marijuana DUII charges and also provide expert opinion and testimony regarding both criminal and civil cases involving cannabis and hemp nationwide. In the event of business disputes, we offer mediation and alternative dispute resolution services to cannabis-based businesses.

Political consulting

Recreational marijuana is currently legal in Oregon and 23 other states, however, cannabis law is far from settled and constantly evolving. Hughes Law has been on the front lines in the battle to normalize recreational marijuana use for decades and routinely consults with candidates for public office and elected officials on both sides of the political aisle to develop well-conceived cannabis policies.
