David Grant , Copenhagen, Denmark

As a pragmatic, motivated and professional commercial lawyer with over 14 years of experience in private practice and in-house, I have a proven track record of providing legal advice primarily in the fields of renewable energy, manufacturing and construction. I pride myself on my ability to find solutions and to focus on the bigger picture.

My areas of expertise include contract preparation, negotiation and advice, with a focus on the energy and manufacturing sectors. As a lawyer in private practice, I gained extensive experience acting for listed companies and with that appreciation of the key issues in multiple jurisdictions, including compliance and risk. I have advised major U.S., European and Far Eastern multinationals and financial institutions, including on mergers and acquisitions, direct investments, IPOs and on general legal matters. I am experienced in handling cross-border transactions and in negotiating supply agreements in a wide range of jurisdictions, with emphasis on the emerging markets and handling the unique set of risks and opportunities they present.
