Attorney Ronald G. Rossi has joined Polsinelli Shughart PC as a shareholder in the firm’s Denver office, where he will develop the clean technology practice and assist clients in the energy and biotechnology fields with complex financial transactions.
Rossi brings more than 30 years of experience related to mergers and acquisitions, corporate governance, and finance and project development in growing industries, including oil and gas, alternative energy, biosciences, health care and technology.
“Ron adds tremendous experience to our firm to serve the region’s leading and emerging clean technology and alternative energy industries,” said G. Stephen Long, managing partner of the Denver office. “He has an outstanding reputation in the energy, business and legal communities, which will greatly benefit our clients. We’re privileged to have Ron as part of our Polsinelli Shughart team.”
Prior to joining Polsinelli Shughart, Rossi was of counsel with Snell & Wilmer LLP in Denver.

He founded one of the country’s largest biodiesel companies, and he has served as lead counsel in M&A projects for more than 100 companies.
Ross says he was attracted to Polsinelli Shughart given the firm’s growth, resources and value offered to clients.
“Clean technology and clean energy are the core of our new economy,” Rossi said. “I’m pleased to bring my experience to help clients navigate the changing federal regulations, financial structures and growing demand in these industries.”
A member of the Denver and Colorado Bar Associations, Rossi received his J.D. and Bachelor of Arts degrees from the University of Michigan.
