More
William E Kruse is a Vice President, Legal Counsel, and Regulatory Compliance Officer for Gallup, the world’s most trusted survey research and management consulting organization. His office is located in Washington, DC, at Gallup’s world headquarters, where he is responsible for matters of world-wide public procurement and global legal compliance. He is part of a small handpicked legal team of six in-house counsel headed by Gallup’s General Counsel and Ethics Officer, Steven D. O’Brien.
His legal work for Gallup has taken him to Cameroon, China, Ghana, India, Kenya, Liberia, Thailand, Singapore, and the United Arab Emirates.
He came to Gallup from a premier railroad and maritime litigation firm in the mid-west of the United States, Holland, Groves, Schneller & Stolze, LLC., where he litigated matters in Federal and State courts across the United States in both the trial and appellate courts. He will forever be indebted to Eric Holland and his team of world-class attorneys for their training and leadership.
Mr. Kruse spent six years in the United States Coast Guard, with several years spent at sea on the Coast Guard Cutter Valiant, a medium endurance cutter home ported in Miami Beach, Florida. He handled procurement and budgeting for the Valiant, and later CGD7 (DPA). While serving onboard the Valiant, he served as a tactical boarding team member and cutter rescue swimmer.
Mr. Kruse graduated seventh in his class from Florida International University College of Law, and performed externships with the United States Coast Guard’s JAG office in Miami as well as with the Miami Public Defender’s office as a felony division Florida Rule 11 trial attorney.
