Linked Reviews
Financial and corporate

White & Case is a constantly growing firm with a great reputation for working on highly complex transactions. The firm currently has 44 offices across six continents. In the United States, the firm maintains eight offices.

 

Highlights

The firm stands out for its top-tier work in M&A and restructuring and insolvency. In addition, the firm does notable work in the banking and debt capital markets practice areas. In banking, the firm advised Broadcom on the acquisition financing for the purchase of VMware. This was among the largest technology transactions in history and had a unique feature that allowed Broadcom to defer closing the transaction while finalizing the financing.

The firm’s restructuring and insolvency practice represented the Ad Hoc Committee of Local Councils of Boy Scouts of America as the debtors in the Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceeding. Among abuse settlement funds, this is the largest in U.S. history and is unprecedented in relation to mass tort cases.    

 

Key clients 

Key clients include Broadcom, RTX Corporation, 3M Company, Lumen Technologies, Global Payments, Boy Scouts of America, Mallinckrodt, XPO, Rayonier advanced Materials, Siris Capital and King Street Capital Management.
