Anyone considering a collective startup really should have a lawyer do it. We just had one settup, it cost us $3,000.00, and was worth every dime. The peace of mind in knowing all the T's were crossed and the I's dotted is priceless. The lawyer also gave us very specific instructions on how to make every concievable cannabis transaction. We are now constructing a 20,000 watt grow op without the fear that came with previous growing operations. I think I could even see a cop approaching the warehouse without having too big of a heart attack.
We'll be posting a thread detailing the whole process; from legal to construction to growing and harvest.
