Global law firm White & Case LLP has expanded its Global Mergers & Acquisitions Practice and Global Technology Industry Group with the appointment of Norman Röchert as a partner in Germany, strengthening its capabilities in advising technology-focused clients and investors.
Röchert, a recognized technology lawyer in Germany, brings nearly 20 years of experience advising international growth funds, financial sponsors, growth companies, and founders. His work spans emerging sectors including artificial intelligence, defense technology, energy transition, and financial software. He also has experience in complex corporate finance matters, including initial public offerings and stock exchange-related transactions.
He joins the firm from Taylor Wessing, where he served as partner and co-chair of the international technology, media, and communications sector group.

Germany remains a key innovation hub for the firm, and Röchert’s arrival further strengthens its ability to support clients across a broad range of transactions and disputes. His hire is part of a broader series of recent lateral partner additions to the firm’s Global Technology Industry Group across major international markets.
