"For our firm, having Colleen join us was an exceptional opportunity to add a highly regarded lawyer and a true leader to our team," said Pedro "Tony" Alvarez, one of the firm's founders. "Today, we count ourselves as fortunate to have her with us and very much look forward to her contributions as a member of our partnership," he added.

Grady has been recognized in the past year by the Daily Business Review for several transactions, including the acquisition and financing of the largest wind farm in Central America, and negotiating a Colombian micro-lender's $50 million loan from the Inter-American Development Bank.
Prior to joining AADS, Grady was a corporate associate in the Miami, Stockholm and Helsinki offices of the international law firm White & Case LLP for a number of years before teaching at Nova Southeastern University's Shepard Broad Law Center from 2005-2014.
"In coming back into the private practice of law from academia, I was thrilled to join a young and growing firm in my chosen area. Now, I look forward to working with my partners to assure its continued success and excellence," said Grady.
