Cannabis

Lawyers in Gowling WLG’s cannabis team demonstrate ‘deep subject-matter expertise combined with a pragmatic, solutions-focused approach’. The firm’s signature intellectual property offering is a key driver of work in this sphere, and it routinely represents life sciences entities — among other clients — in both regulatory and transactional matters. Toronto-based Peter Simeon fronts the transactional side of the practice and recently advised Akanda Corp on the sale of RPK, its Portuguese subsidiary, to SOMAÍ Pharmaceuticals. Ottawa-based Lewis Retik leads the regulatory side and brings ’exceptional ability to translate complex regulatory language’. Also in Toronto, Natalie Rizkalla-Kamel and Jason A Saltzman are noted for IP and transactional work respectively.
