White & Case, one of the world’s leading global law firms, is adding yet another notable name to its roster with one of the most recent hires – Eriko Sakata, the former head of Linklaters Asia Funds, in Tokyo. With over two decades of work experience under her belt, residing at Linklaters, the experience Eriko brings to the table is crucial.
Eriko’s movement across firms is indicative of the continued tussle between major law firms to acquire and retain top-quality talent. Especially in the current scenario, where legal proceedings have become more nuanced and complex with the widespread adoption of technology and the unpredictable nature of global events, having experienced professionals serves as invaluable assets.
While White & Case is yet to unveil the exact nature of responsibilities Eriko will have, it is anticipated that she will play a pivotal role in expanding the firm’s Asia presence in the Funds segment.
