Praised for its ‘outstanding’ legal acumen and commercial understanding, White & Case LLP is frequently engaged by corporates and sovereign-backed entities on complex mandates across the Middle East, particularly in Saudi Arabia, where it advises prominent clients such as NEOM, Saudi Aramco, and the Public Investment Fund on greenfield projects in energy transition and social infrastructure. Adam Pierson leads the team, serving as a principal advisor to Saudi Aramco, with projects and PPP specialist Antoine Cousin also providing extensive support across project portfolios. Co-head Yasser Riad is recognised for his work with EWEC on both new ventures and existing assets. Mark Andrews and Claire Patrick joined from the London office in 2024, adding further expertise. Jennifer Riddle left the firm in March 2025.
