Attorney Bill Grantham has joined Greenberg Traurig's burgeoning corporate and securities practice in Los Angeles.

Grantham has extensive experience representing international investors, studios, producers and distributors across a range of entertainment platforms.

'Continuing changes in the global entertainment content financing marketplace demand creativity and skill,' Tom Loo, co-managing shareholder of Greenberg Traurig's Los Angeles office said.

'Bill's experience in private practice working with national and international financing sources in developing new financing structures that respond to those changes will be invaluable to clients and further expand our well-established leadership in this critical area of the entertainment business.'

'Joining a firm with Greenberg Traurig's reach and reputation for excellence in client representation provides a much larger platform and tremendous resources to expand into new and emerging markets,' Grantham said.

Grantham's prior positions include consultant to the EU Media Programe and Irish Trade Board. He was a founding editor of Television Business International magazine and served as a columnist for Screen International.
