His new firm said Li has broad domestic and international energy and resources experience, with a particular focus on the mining industry.
He has provided commercial advice to a range of clients in the energy and resources sectors, including on M&A private treaty transactions, public takeovers and schemes of arrangement, FIRB approvals, joint ventures and shareholder agreements, as well as on equity capital markets transactions, restructures, international treaties and the application of foreign bribery legislation, Clayton Utz said in a statement.
