Regulatory Affairs and mining attorney Marc Marra joined the Phoenix office of Dorsey & Whitney LLP.

Marc trained as both an economist and engineer, and he served as an economics/engineering analyst for a Fortune 500 company for many years prior to earning his law degree. His experience in a corporate environment has covered project evaluation and due diligence for mining and other resource-based ventures, commercial developments, and mergers and acquisitions.

Marc joins Dorsey from Fennemore Craig, where he was a director. Marc received his J.D. from Arizona State University, Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law, his M.S. in Mineral Economics from the University of Arizona, and his B.S. in Mining Engineering from the University of Arizona.

Ross, Norm James, and Fred Breedlove,” said Scott Jenkins, Dorsey’s Phoenix office head. “We are thrilled to welcome Marc to Dorsey.”
