Crowell & Moring, a significant player in the legal sphere, has recently expanded its environment, energy, and natural resources practice group with a new partner, Ruta Kalvaitis Skučas as reported on Bloomberg Law.
Before shifting to Crowell & Moring, Skučas was associated with K&L Gates. Beyond her stint at K&L Gates, she has been advising a diverse set of clients. Her expertise has been majorly employed by clean energy developers, traders, and technology companies, primarily on energy issues. Her advisory role spans across the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, the US Department of Energy, and state public utility commissions.
In addition to her roles in the private sector, Skučas carries with her a rich repository of experience from her time at the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). She has served in vital roles including the attorney advisor and as an attorney in the Commission’s Office of the General Counsel at FERC.
The addition of Skučas to the ranks at Crowell & Moring will undoubtedly bring a wealth of experience and know-how to the firm. Her vast knowledge in the energy sector and experience in working with regulatory bodies are valuable assets that will augment the firm’s standing in the legal industry.
