He has used this experience to form a legally compliant investment vehicle for the medical marijuana industry.
Until the passage of Arizona’s medical marijuana law, Jerry was a general business attorney in Carefree, Ariz. He assisted and counseled numerous start-up ventures and dealt with a variety of issues for ongoing businesses. Over the past 10 years he moved away from litigation issues and into IRS controversy work.
In addition to running his law practice, Jerry manages a successful, insurance-reimbursed psychology practice. Prior to relocating to Arizona in 1991, he spent nearly a decade as an attorney in the self-regulatory body of the national advertising industry in New York.
