BILL HOLZHAUER has joined Barclay Damon as of counsel, serving in the firm’s environmental, energy, and white collar & government investigations practice areas. His primary office location will be in Syracuse. Holzhauer has more than three decades of experience leading environmental and ethics-compliance programs. He joins the firm from National Grid, where he was the U.S. director of ethics and compliance. In this role, he managed the U.S. team of ethics, compliance, and records-management specialists for the international gas and electric utility. During his 13-year tenure there, he developed the Ethics Liaison Network, which was recognized as a best-in-class ethics program. Prior to that role, Holzhauer was assistant general counsel for litigation and environmental matters for National Grid. He established and implemented a robust environmental-compliance program, headed up efforts to certify power plants to ISO 14001, and crafted the first-ever corporate responsibility report for National Grid. At Barclay Damon, Holzhauer concentrates his practice on advising clients regarding environmental compliance and remediation. He also has experience with the development of internal compliance programs of all types, preparing and administering a code of ethics, as well as overseeing internal investigations.
