Career

Grant is a highly adaptive attorney who focuses on international trade, export controls, trade sanctions and anti-corruption compliance.

Grant has extensive experience helping clients navigate complex issues related to international commerce and its associated compliance challenges, including CFIUS. As part of his practice, Grant advises clients on requirements under the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), Export Administration Regulations (EAR) administered by the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) administered by the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC), trade sanctions administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) and other import- and export-related regulations.

Before joining Husch Blackwell, Grant worked for six years as in-house counsel for a diversified equipment manufacturer with extensive international operations. As a result, he has firsthand understanding of clients’ need for responsive and practical guidance when dealing with international trade compliance issues. Grant is particularly skilled at assisting clients to develop and maintain easy-to-administer compliance programs that avoid unnecessary disruption of business operations.

Grant also is a well-rounded transactional attorney. He represents lenders, borrowers and security issuers in financing transactions and assists clients in structuring and concluding all manner of corporate transactions, both domestically and internationally. Grant’s experience handling export compliance under State and Commerce Department regulations makes him adept at determining when transactions potentially involve “critical technologies” under recently-promulgated CFIUS regulations and he advises clients accordingly.
