Halfmoon
Precedent Counsel
Positioning
A heritage cannabis farm on the Mendocino coast. Three generations of one family. Adult, plain, family-rooted — not nostalgic, not theatrical.
A boutique legal firm for cannabis operators, capital partners, and consequential matters where cannabis-only counsel is not enough.
Audience
Adult-use consumers who started smoking before legalization. Aging-up customer base that wants cannabis from someone they trust.
Operators, investors, boards, and capital partners who need cannabis fluency with serious legal-sector credibility.
Voice
Plain-spoken, weathered, slightly skeptical of new brands. The voice of a sixty-five-year-old grower who has seen this market arrive late.
Precise, restrained, and institutional. The language of briefs, opinions, and partner memos rather than marketing copy.
Style
Cream + warm brown + terra clay accent. Editorial serif type. Documentary farm photography.
Cream cotton, deep ink, oxblood rule, Spectral italic wordmark, formal documents and office architecture.
Avoids
Theatrical heritage cosplay, 1990s herb shop packaging, stoner imagery, false rusticism
Cannabis gimmicks, startup law-firm friendliness, generic gavel imagery, faces as hero surfaces, glossy corporate gradients

Deliverables
Halfmoon
"Cut at first frost. Cured through November. This is what patience tastes like."
"The fall harvest came in lighter than last year — about 720 pounds of trimmed flower — but the cure on the back ridge is the best in three years."
Precedent Counsel
"Counsel earned the hard way for the cannabis economy."
"A firm built to be cited, not advertised."
