White & Case has been making headlines recently after introducing a four-day office mandate for attorneys and losing major lateral hire Taurie Zeitzer. Zeitzer, who commanded a compensation package of $15 to $20 million, is leaving to establish her own M&A advisory firm. She has previously worked with notable clients like Apollo Global Management but experienced a significant drop in transactions in 2024. Zeitzer's move reflects evolving market dynamics, which she describes as presenting new opportunities for innovative client partnerships.
Taurie Zeitzer, who joined White & Case as a highly compensated co-head of the global private equity group, will leave to launch her own M&A advisory firm after just 16 months.
Zeitzer stated, 'We are seeing an entirely different market than in recent years with a wide variety of unprecedented situations... It's the right moment for this product, and I'm excited for what's ahead.'
