White & Case LLP

White & Case LLP‘s multidisciplinary private equity team handles a steady stream of multibillion-dollar transactions across a diverse range of sectors, including healthcare, technology, and energy, though it is especially well-regarded for its expertise in the infrastructure space, where it advises major investors and asset managers on cross-border investment activities, take-private acquisitions, auctions, and leveraged buyouts. Experienced practitioner Oliver Brahmst leads the firm’s relationship with blue-chip clients such as Brookfield and CVC and co-heads the practice with John Reiss, who is noted for his M&A and corporate governance expertise. Chicago lawyer Gary Silverman handles deals in the tech and retail sectors, among others. The team expanded its ranks with the arrival from Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP of Taurie Zeitzer, who is noted for her experience with leveraged buyouts and take-private acquisitions, in January 2024. All lawyers are New York-based unless otherwise stated.
