Eversheds Sutherland

A prestigious client base of utilities, generation developers, transmission infrastructure developers, and private equity groups are among those to instruct Eversheds Sutherland on electric power regulation. The practice’s foremost strengths are in the physical and financial trading of energy commodities and related derivative products, in-depth compliance support, and representation in investigations and enforcement actions. The team is well versed in dealing with the range of relevant regulatory bodies, and its wider global network enhances its efficiency in cross-border work. Joseph Hall co-leads the practice group from the Washington DC office and is well versed in representing its most prominent clients. His fellow practice head Thomas Warren is based in Atlanta and oversees clean energy projects work. Daniel Frank has a strong reputation for advising electric industry clients on regulatory and compliance matters before the FERC, the NERC, and state public service commissions, and Roxane Maywalt draws on extensive energy law experience: both are based in Washington DC, where Michael Sweeney Jr., Kerim May, and Allison Salvia are additional key figures. Michael Boldt is the contact to note at the Austin office.
