Emily Harris Gant is featured in the 2025 edition of Washington Super Lawyers for her work in Washington’s cannabis industry. The profile reflects her early days advising entrepreneurs after the passage of Initiative 502, when Washington’s cannabis laws were still evolving and systems were being built from the ground up. Over the years, she has worked closely with licensed producers, processors and retailers to help them operate within state law while addressing the continuing divide between state legalization and federal prohibition.
Inspired by her father, a lawyer and wine enthusiast, and shaped by early exposure to Oregon’s wine industry, Emily moved from litigation into regulatory work to help clients establish and expand their businesses. She is recognized for her clear communication, thoughtful strategy and approachable style, as well as her conviction that strong, transparent regulations create a healthier and more sustainable market.
For the second consecutive year, Emily has been named among the Top 50 Women and Top 100 Attorneys in Washington by Super Lawyers, reflecting the high regard in which she is held by peers in the legal community.
