Working in the Czech Republic
Working in the Czech Republic
With more than 2,000 lawyers in 44 offices in 30 countries, White & Case is a top-ranked global law firm. We were one of the very first international law firms to expand into the Czech Republic, establishing our Prague office in 1991.
Today, more than 50 lawyers and tax advisors work on a wide range of complex local and cross-border matters, drawing on our deep experience in national and international commercial law.
Having extremely capable and smart people creates an environment where lawyers are capable of incredible performance. And that's when we support them and give them the courage to do it.
