The Energy Initiative

White & Case recognizes that the needs of clients in the US energy sector have grown increasingly sophisticated and multi-disciplinary, transcending practice areas. The White & Case Energy Initiative brings together leading attorneys from multiple practices, who spend a significant portion of their time working in the energy sector, in order to provide integrated counseling. Attorneys from our Energy Regulatory, Project Finance, M&A, Banking, Investment Funds, Bankruptcy, Securities, Tax and Environmental Groups work together to integrate legal, regulatory and strategic advice for energy sector clients.

On an every-day basis, our team works on some of the most significant projects and transactions in the energy industry. Our capabilities are highlighted by the recent successes for our clients Amerada Hess, BNP Paribas, Constellation, Edison Mission Energy, Electric Generator Coalition, Helaba, Mirant, New Harquahala Generating Station, Occidental Petroleum, PG&E, Saudi Aramco, Shell and many others.
