Graham Pechenik

Prior to founding Calyx Law in 2016, Graham gained over a decade of experience representing numerous companies in the agricultural, chemical, pharmaceutical, biotech, and technology industries. In college, Graham chose his science majors after his first experiences with psychedelics inspired deep curiosity about the chemical and neural bases for changes in consciousness. A continued desire to push for the legality of cannabis and psychedelics drove the decision to enter law school, with the dream of becoming an advocate for cognitive liberty. A decade after graduating law school, Graham was finally able to combine his personal and professional interests, by starting a legal practice focused on cannabis and psychedelics. Graham contributes to Psilocybin Alpha as editor-at-large, providing data for patent trackers and writing about IP in the psychedelics space.
