White and Williams

Our firm was founded by Thomas Raeburn White over 100 years ago. A model of continuity and stability, we have enjoyed slow and steady growth, carefully mentoring each new lawyer and rarely acquiring practices laterally. In this way, despite its growth to over 230 attorneys in ten offices, our firm has maintained a culture that places premium value on loyalty, integrity, and service to our clients. We recognize that while size can better enable us to offer our clients a full spectrum of legal services, it must not prevent us from developing close, partnering relationships with each and every one of our clients. At White and Williams, we are large enough to serve our clients, and small enough to care.

 

Our firm has won some of the most important civil trials and handled some of the most sophisticated business transactions in the United States. Widely respected for excellence in the courtroom, our lawyers represent clients in all aspects of civil litigation and appellate practice in state and federal courts. Our litigation practice encompasses such areas as business and employment issues, products liability, medical malpractice, toxic and mass torts and workers’ compensation. We have a national reputation as counsel to insurance companies in complex matters such as property subrogation, coverage, insurance fraud and reinsurance disputes.

 

In our business practice, we represent a variety of regional, national and international business organizations, financial institutions, pension funds, developers and individuals. Handling a myriad of transactions, a White and Williams business attorney will focus on such matters as the formation, governance, operation and dissolution of corporate organizations. We also provide guidance and representation in such areas as creditors’ rights, real estate, tax and estate planning and e-commerce.

 

Our client base is diverse. We represent banks, bank-holding companies, product manufacturers, insurance companies, colleges and universities, service and distribution companies, health care institutions, real estate developers, retailers, title insurance companies and brokerage firms.

We at White and Williams are proud of the century-old heritage of excellence, innovation and integrity left to us by our predecessors. Every day, we dedicate ourselves to maintaining our reputation, case by case, client by client. Our focus remains on our clients, whose goals and objectives we strive to understand and serve.
