During this five year period, Grant gained experience in a number of areas of law, gaining notable experience in litigation matters (including large commercial litigation), and the provision of advice to people and companies experiencing financial difficulties.

From there Grant co-founded a legal practice in Melbourne. Grant oversaw the litigation team with a particular emphasis on Insolvency Law.
