White & Case provides clients with an impressive global platform. The firm handles high-end, complex mandates from the USA and works seamlessly with other teams in its expansive network across EMEA and Asia-Pacific and with other offices across North and South America. The team excels in transactional and contentious matters, and is recognised for its ability to drive cross-border deals into other jurisdictions. By remaining highly attuned to the needs of all international clients, it is a popular choice for global operations.
The firm performs excellently in global private equity and public M&A transactions, with clients equally attracted by its highly proficient US team and its wide presence across major and emerging markets globally. The US team often collaborates with the firm's well-reputed European and Asian teams for inbound and outbound deals, serving US clients investing abroad and foreign companies entering the USA. It has a strong track record in US–Latin American M&A, leveraging its teams in Brazil and Mexico, which work closely with the Miami office. The firm also maintains strong ties to clients active in the Middle East, frequently leading transactions from the USA and utilising strong experience in the energy sector.
