CPAacademy.org | HOW MARIJUANA INDUSTRY CAN BEST PREPARE FOR CLASS

Laura Godina (HR BLOCK)

"HA HA I felt so bad about learning about something most are against, I felt really sneaky like hiding from my mom. I didn't even need this course but I want to help out a few of the industries over by me. I live by 8 Mile in by Detroit so that Mile Road was at one given pointe in time filled with Dispos. Now there is like five. Two I reach out too all the time as a CPA I help them give them advice and to show them I do know what I am talking I can now tell them I have a credit in this field. I would like to take some more courses on this subject so I can educate myself and them. Thank you for this presentation it was wonderful."

Kathleen Hon (RETIRED)

"Steve Schain was great. he took a multitude of information and made it palatable and understandable AND delivered it at a pace that kept it interesting. While I am not ready to be an attorney in the field, I do have more knowledge to tell a client when they are going to need one. That is an invaluable service to my clients. I want to attend every class he's teaching at CPA Academy!"

Donald Braun (DB Group)

"Loved the light-hearted presentation of what could be considered a grim subject. My son is a neophyte marijuana grower. His brother-in-law is an experienced and winning PI attorney who likes to litigate. But in my experience (union leadership and municipal management), avoiding litigation is far more preferable than risking litigation."

Colleen Walsh (Colleen M. Walsh, CPA)

"I must say that Steve Schain from Hoban Law Group, LLC has an excellent presentation and I always learn something new about the emerging cannabis industry every time I attend a session. I'm looking forward to learning more from Steve Schain in the future. And please let him know that I have stopped using the term "recreational.""

Laura Hirschfeld (Julia Clark & Associates, PC)

"I enjoy all of the courses put on by Hoban Law Group - the content is excellent, interesting, and well presented. The presenters are energetic and engaging and there is plenty of information for the hourlong credit. I never feel like they are just trying to fill the hour and get the viewers to hire them. A+ and thank you!"

Floyd Hickerson (HEARTLAND TAX SERVICE)

"I have sat through about a dozen seminars and webinars related to marijuana and this was more thorough and informative. I recommend that all of you sit through this class because it will help you to get through the maize of cannabis taxation and tort cases. Believe me there will be plenty of litigation."

Cynthia Austen (Self employed)

Kimberly, TX

"Thank you for apprising us of the bloom of litigiousness in this exploding segment of the economy...I'm sure I should have assumed that this industry would face the same potential legal, product liability issues faced by other federally legal businesses, but I just wasn't thinking about it...That Drug Dealer Liability Act seems incredulous...what if that same lack of DIRECT causal connection was used against a distributor of tylenol, or tomatoes? I certainly don't want to protect drug dealers, but it is this variance in a law, which I had assumed should be "fair and equitable" regardless of personal judgment that I find unsavory. Thank you for shedding light on a subject that has not yet affected me professionally or personally."
