Valerio was a co-author of the ballot initiative that ended cannabis prohibition in Massachusetts. Valerio’s clients were among the first twenty to be awarded state licenses for medical cannabis businesses in Massachusetts. In 2013 his client was awarded the first local license in Massachusetts. VGR Law Firm takes the experience and knowledge of Valerio’s former partnership in a national firm and brings it to the market at affordable rates. We work with individuals and companies through every stage of the process as they enter the market and seek licenses; with existing operators to stay compliant; with landlords who lease space to operators; with host communities that allow cannabis businesses, and with investors who look to participate in the industry.
