Our compliance services are guided by principles of equity, accessibility, and sustainability. We work with our clients to protect consumers, workers, and the environment while ensuring their business is open to people of all abilities.

Our Legacy

High Rise Law is the latest evolution of the Law Office of Lauren Vázquez, the Fired Up Lawyer, established in 2011. Vázquez is one of the nation’s original cannabis business attorneys and is known as the lawyer that legalized cannabis in California. As an industry pioneer she has worked with many other cannabis leaders and organizations. Over the years she has received numerous honors for her work and has been an invited speaker at top industry events.

Our Dedication

Every member of our crew has a history of helping cannabis patients, prisoners, parents, Veterans, and small businesses. We are the activists that lobby politicians, stay late at city council meetings, challenge regulators, and change state and local laws. We are the influencers that stand up to corporate cannabis. We believe the cannabis industry always has been and always will be a movement for social justice.
