Our Firm
Global culture
We’re shaping an environment where people thrive, feel they belong and are supported to make their mark. It’s important that this work never stops and that everyone who works at White & Case contributes to our diverse, inclusive and welcoming culture.
Our values
Pioneering, united, human—these are the three values that shape our distinctive culture and differentiate us from other law firms. Our values capture the spirit of our Firm, and guide the behaviors and actions that enable us to deliver on the promises we make to our clients and our people.

We are One Firm with a shared sense of purpose. Our people develop meaningful relationships across offices around the world, which give them a valuable and trusted network like nowhere else.

We care about each other and the world around us. It is our aim to provide you with the opportunities and platform to do great work and own your career. It’s about empowering you to be the best you can be, wherever the future may lead you.
A firm that welcomes everyone
The diversity of our lawyers is a source of strength, and the nature of our clients’ needs requires collaboration across borders. We attract people who value learning about different cultures, experiences, languages and viewpoints.
Our mission is to continue to build upon this strength and create an environment where all who work here are encouraged, assisted and inspired to reach their potential. Our commitment to inclusion has made us an employer of choice worldwide.
As a clerk I saw that diversity was not only visible but really formed the backbone of White & Case.
