White & Case LLP is adept at navigating multidistrict litigation and mass torts for pharmaceutical companies, financial institutions, technology platforms, and global brands. The department is spearheaded by Miami’s Jim Robinson, who brings extensive expertise in commercial and professional liability disputes; New York’s David Hille, a trusted advocate in nationwide class actions and fiduciary claims; and New York-based litigators Glenn Kurtz and Jonathan Polkes, both highly regarded for commercial, antitrust and restructuring-related disputes. Joel Cohen, serves as chair of the firm’s global white collar practice, handling sensitive investigations and parallel civil and criminal proceedings. The practice was further enhanced in March 2025 with the addition of New York’s Stacey Nettleton, an experienced securities, derivative, and M&A litigator, and Adam Banks, whose practice spans antitrust, IP, and securities disputes. Brent Wible joined the DC office in 2024, focusing on white-collar defense and government litigation. Tara Lee has left the firm.
