Major wins for clients
From big deals to complex disputes, we advised on matters that helped move clients’ businesses forward
Welcome to Perspective: 2024, the reimagined annual review from White & Case. With its newly shortened format, we hope to give you a high-level view of the work we’ve done on behalf of our clients and the key themes shaping the global markets.
Throughout 2024, our focus remained on delivering exceptional results for our clients—helping them seize opportunities, navigate complexities and achieve major business wins. Whether advising on Jersey Mike’s sale to Blackstone, helping Calpine finance one of the largest battery storage systems in the US, or defending the government of Georgia against a US$1.5 billion arbitration claim, we were at our clients’ side through transformative deals, disputes and regulatory challenges. Thanks to the trust our clients place in us, we reached significant milestones as a Firm, including surpassing US$3 billion in revenue for the first time.
Perspective: 2024 kicks off with "Executive voices," a collection of three short videos featuring Dipen Sabharwal on what it means to be “truly global,” Carina Radford on the Firm’s industry expertise, and my own reflections on 2024 highlights and plans for 2025. In "Client successes," we spotlight ten standout achievements for clients including CVC, Deutsche Bank and Vantage Data Centers—matters that not only shaped businesses but also reflected broader global trends such as digital acceleration and sustainable development.
"By the numbers" provides a snapshot of the impact we’ve made over the past year, while "Better together" illustrates how we provided 360-degree support to global mining client Vale. Lastly, in "Pioneer spotlight," we hear from partner Ladan Stewart, who is helping clients navigate the fast-moving world of crypto and fintech.
I hope you enjoy reading and viewing.
