Ari Goldstein
Principal Attorney
Ari Goldstein is a Michigan-based attorney who helps entrepreneurs and small business owners navigate the complex regulatory landscapes of highly-regulated industries. With a focus on cannabis licensing, liquor licensing, emerging psychedelics law, and general business compliance, Ari provides practical, no-nonsense legal counsel to clients who need to get things done right the first time.
After earning his J.D. from the University of Michigan Law School—one of the nation's top law programs—Ari chose to focus his practice on the intersection of business law and regulatory compliance. He recognized early on that many entrepreneurs in emerging industries were underserved by traditional law firms that didn't understand their unique challenges.
Whether you're applying for a cannabis license, transferring a liquor license, forming an LLC, or building a compliance program from the ground up, Ari brings a hands-on approach that prioritizes clarity, efficiency, and results. He believes that good legal counsel shouldn't be intimidating or inaccessible—it should empower business owners to make informed decisions with confidence.
When he's not helping clients, Ari stays active in Michigan's evolving regulatory landscape, tracking legislative developments and advocating for sensible policies that support small business growth.
