Kirk Huth provides legal counsel to municipalities related to the rapidly growing and evolving marijuana industry in Michigan. Following the legalization of medical and recreational uses of marijuana in Michigan, community leaders have been grappling with how to operate within the new regulatory framework, and Mr. Huth has been at the forefront of helping them to understand and overcome various legal challenges.

“I appreciate the vote of confidence from the Mayor Duggan and the Detroit City Council. All worked hard to draft an Ordinance that gives Detroiters an opportunity to participate in the cannabis industry. I will ensure their goal is met,” said Huth.
