McCarter & English

McCarter & English, LLP has named David A. White managing partner of its Wilmington office. In his new management role, White will be responsible for overseeing the day-to-day operations of the office, as well as coordinating business and practice-development efforts. He will continue to maintain a full law practice, focused on product liability defense, alternate dispute resolution, complex commercial litigation and toxic tort litigation.


"Our Wilmington office is thriving and of great importance to our clients there and throughout the region,” said Stephen M. Vajtay, Jr., the firm’s managing partner. “We anticipate that under Dave’s leadership, we will continue to strengthen the firm's reputation as a leader in the Delaware and Mid-Atlantic markets.”


Michael P. Kelly, the Wilmington-based chairman of the firm, added: “Dave White is greatly respected, not only as a litigator, but also as a person, in the Delaware legal community and beyond. It takes special qualities to balance a full plate of important legal work and the business of running an office, and Dave has just those qualities.”

In becoming office managing partner, White replaces A. Richard “Tony” Winchester, the longtime head of the office, who recently retired from the practice of law.


Besides manufacturers, White’s clients include financial institutions and secured creditors in commercial loan workouts, related litigation, and bankruptcy. He was recently named a Fellow of the American College of Civil Trial Mediators – central to his alternative dispute resolution practice.


White was an elected member of the Executive Committee of the Delaware State Bar Association from 2003 to 2010 and 2013 to 2014, and is an active member of its Professional Guidance Committee. Since 2008, he has been the firm’s liaison to the Delaware Combined Campaign for Justice, which supports the Community Legal Aid Society, Delaware Volunteer Legal Services, and the Legal Services Corporation of Delaware. In 2008, he established the firm’s annual sponsorship of a road race that supports the Ronald McDonald House of Delaware. He was recently named to the board of directors of the Ministry of Caring Guild, serves as legal advisor to the Justin W. Jennings Foundation, a non-profit organization that maintains a respite home for families dealing with childhood cancer and serves on the Board of Trustees of the Children’s Beach House, a non-profit organization located in Lewes, Delaware.
