Chris Anderson has been immersed in the cannabis industry – as an attorney, a consultant, and a business operator – since Washington State legalized adult-use cannabis in 2012.
In his twenty year career, Chris has been outside counsel, in-house counsel, and a business executive in ventures ranging from entrepreneurial start-ups to mature international corporations. Chris’s consistent professional mission is to serve as a trusted advisor to his clients and his colleagues: Chris assesses situations and data to identify critical issues, synthesizes information to drive clear decision-making, and then executes and adapts to deliver concrete results.
Chris earned undergraduate degrees in Anthropology and Philosophy from the University of Virginia and an MA from the University of Chicago. Chris then realized that he needed to get a job and so returned to the University of Virginia for law school. You can reach Chris directly at cla@halversonlaw.com.
