MILWAUKEE — The national law firm of Quarles & Brady LLP today announced that partner Rebecca Cameron Valcq has been appointed to Governor-Elect Tony Evers’ Public Service Commission. Beginning on January 8, 2019, Valcq will begin her six-year term.

“I’m honored to have been selected by Governor-Elect Tony Evers for this position,” says Valcq. “I’m grateful for the support from my colleagues and friends at Quarles & Brady as I make this transition to public service.”

Valcq currently is a partner in the firm’s Energy, Environment & Natural Resources practice group. She is an experienced regulatory attorney and focuses her practice on energy and utility matters.
