Marijuana in Injury Litigation: The New Alcohol

Medical Marijuana is legal in at least 2 dozen states and the approved indications are increasing.  Recreational marijuana is legal in only a few, but more are to follow. Even without legal status, marijuana use is widespread, and with legalization, use will increase.

As forensic consultants, we have consulted on marijuana matters in a wide variety of civil and criminal matters, similar to our consultations in alcohol. Legal or not, if an event occurs, or a person is injured and marijuana use is suggested or detected, part of the focus will be on marijuana.

The attached lecture PPT addresses this matter and provides some case examples that may be useful or interesting.

Please call either of us  if you have any questions about marijuana.  (800) 872-9326
