Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Pilot Program Act (the Compassionate Use Act) was signed by Governor Quinn on August 1, 2013 and went into effect on January 1, 2014. The law pertaining to cannabis in Illinois is still emerging. Cannabis businesses and prescribers need trusted and experienced counsel with an understanding of the administrative functions of government agencies for assistance with responding to legal challenges or setting up a cannabis-related business. In addition, due to the fact that the Compassionate Use Act is still in its infancy, cannabis businesses and prescribers must rely upon knowledgeable counsel to stay up-to-date with changes and developments in the law.
