White & Case has announced its Bratislava office will separate from the firm on March 31, 2022, with the local team to continue as Aldertree Legal.

Aldertree Legal will be led by soon-to-be-former White & Case Partner Juraj Fuska, who confirmed the entire team – including soon-to-be-former White & Case Local Partners Zoran Draskovic, Vladimir Ivanco, and Michal Palisin – is staying with Aldertree.

A White & Case spokesperson announced the firm will have an exclusive alliance with Aldertree, adding: "We would like to thank Juraj and the team in Bratislava for their contribution to White & Case, wish them every success, and look forward to a close and ongoing working relationship under the exclusive alliance."

Fuska commented: "The Bratislava office has achieved healthy growth in recent years and the exclusive alliance with White & Case will ensure continuity to the services we provide and support the development and further growth of Aldertree in Slovakia while ensuring the ongoing delivery of high-quality legal services our clients expect."
