Retain Renaissance Legal Solutions to Assist with Your DEA Registration

We are offering two service tiers (described below) for registering your OMMA licensed business with the DEA.

Please fill out the form at the bottom of this page to begin the process of retaining our services.

Tier 1 — Application Review

You prepare and file your own application through the DEA’s medical marijuana dispensary portal; we review it before you submit and consult with you on identified issues. We do not sign or file on your behalf, and no power of attorney under 21 C.F.R. § 1301.13(j) is filed.

Tier 1 includes:

  • One pre-application consultation (up to 30 minutes) with counsel to walk through the application requirements, required disclosures, and information-gathering process;
  • Review of your draft application before submission, including review of your responses to required disclosures (ownership history, supplier identification, prior agency actions, and disciplinary disclosures for individuals with access to controlled substances);
  • One round of written or verbal revisions and recommendations on the draft;
  • A brief follow-up call with counsel (up to 30 minutes) to discuss our review, answer questions, and confirm readiness to submit;
  • Guidance from trained support staff on obtaining the information and background checks required for disclosure, including identification of required information categories, sources for obtaining background checks on owners and employees, and our recommendations for organizing the disclosures (if you would prefer that our firm obtain or coordinate background checks on your behalf, that work will be billed at our standard hourly rate as set forth in your engagement letter).

Tier 2 — Full-Service Filing

We prepare your application, file a power of attorney under 21 C.F.R. § 1301.13(j), and sign and submit the application to the DEA on your behalf as your attorney-in-fact.

Tier 2 includes everything in Tier 1, plus:

  • Preparation of the application itself based on information gathered through our intake;
  • Drafting and filing of the § 1301.13(j) power of attorney with the DEA Registration Unit;
  • Execution and submission of the application through the DEA’s medical marijuana dispensary portal on your behalf;
  • Routine post-filing communications with the DEA on questions or follow-up requests during the application’s pendency;
  • Coordination of background checks on your behalf for up to three (3) owners or employees (firm time only — see exclusions for hard costs); coordination of background checks for owners or employees beyond the first three will be billed at our standard hourly rate;
  • A short post-filing memo summarizing what was filed, when, and what to expect next.

Discount on Future Registrations, Same Entity

If you retain our firm for an additional DEA registration for the same OMMA-licensed entity on or before June 5, 2026, we will apply a $500 discount to the flat fee for that subsequent registration. Discount applies to the base flat fee only; hourly add-ons and hard costs are excluded.

“Current Clients” Defined: For purposes of this fee schedule, a “current client” is a client who has paid Renaissance Legal Solutions for legal services within the twelve (12) months preceding the date of engagement. All other clients are subject to the new-client rates above.

What’s NOT Included (Billed Separately)

To keep the flat-fee pricing predictable and fair, the following are not included in the flat fees above and will be billed separately:

  • Supplemental legal drafting required to support disclosures (for example, narrative explanations of past agency actions, ownership-change documentation, or written responses to DEA follow-up requests) will be billed at our standard hourly rate, which will be disclosed in your engagement letter;
  • Background check coordination will be billed at our standard hourly rate (i) for Tier 1 clients (which includes guidance on obtaining background checks but not coordination) and (ii) for Tier 2 clients for owners or employees beyond the first three (3);
  • Hard costs — including but not limited to DEA filing fees, background check fees, fingerprinting fees, document retrieval costs, courier or notary fees, and any other third-party costs — are the client’s responsibility and will be invoiced as incurred.

How to Engage

If you wish to retain our firm to assist with your DEA registration, CLICK HERE. We will respond within two business days with an engagement letter and an invoice for the applicable flat fee. Engagement is subject to (i) completion of a conflict check, (ii) execution of a signed engagement letter, and (iii) payment of the applicable flat fee in full. The flat fee must be paid in full before our firm is formally retained and before any services are commenced. This email and the linked intake form do not by themselves create an attorney-client relationship.

IMPORTANT – KEY DEADLINES

June 5, 2026 — Retention Deadline. To guarantee submission of your DEA registration application by the federal deadline, you must retain Renaissance Legal Solutions on or before June 5, 2026.

June 12, 2026 — Information Deadline. Once retained, all information and documentation required to complete your application must be received by our office no later than June 12, 2026. This applies to both Tier 1 (Application Review) and Tier 2 (Full-Service Filing) clients.

June 26, 2026 — Federal Deadline. Final day for filing within the DEA priority-review window under 21 C.F.R. § 1301.13(k).

Engagements retained after June 5, 2026, or for which complete information is not received by June 12, 2026, will be accepted on a best-efforts basis without guarantee of timely submission within the priority window.

Given these deadlines and the volume of registrations we anticipate handling, we encourage interested clients to submit the intake form as soon as possible.
