Andrew Subin, JD ’92, has practiced criminal defense, with an emphasis on cannabis defense, for over 25 years. Throughout his career, he has been a vocal advocate for cannabis law reform. In the early nineties, Mr. Subin was the first attorney in Washington State to employ medical necessity as a defense to charge of growing marijuana, representing a woman who was growing on behalf of a patient with severe glaucoma. Mr. Subin has published on the subject of civil asset forfeiture and its constitutional ramifications and argued (unsuccessfully) to the Washington Supreme Court that asset forfeiture in conjunction with criminal prosecution violates the constitutional prohibition of double jeopardy. In 2018, Mr. Subin relocated from Bellingham, Washington to Burlington, Vermont and joined with Tim Fair to form Vermont Cannabis Solutions, the first cannabis business law firm in the state. Vermont Cannabis Solutions is at the forefront of the burgeoning Vermont cannabis industry; we represent over 100 license applicants: the future cultivators, product manufacturers and retailers of the Vermont industry. Mr. Subin and Mr. Fair are also attorneys of counsel with the Hoban Law Group, the nation’s premiere cannabusiness firm: a network of the most experienced cannabis attorneys throughout the country. Mr. Subin has lectured and spoken, both regionally and nationally, on numerous cannabis issues.
