[QUOTE="Abbie Whitlock, post: 219842, member: 42112"] Hello! In this context, "deal" usually refers to transactional work, so things like M&A, private equity, project finance, or capital markets (e.g. IPOs). Those are typically the types of matters that firms highlight as "deals" on their website. Areas such as litigation and arbitration usually won't fall under "deals", since those are contention matters rather than transactions. That said, a sovereign restructuring could still work if you frame it well. It might not be a "deal" in the strict sense, but it does involve complex negotiations, strategic considerations, and cross-border coordination - all of which align with White & Case's strengths. The key is showing that you understand the commercial and strategic elements of the matter, not just the legal side. [/QUOTE]
