White & Case private equity partner Ian Bagshaw has closed his first two deals for the firm this week, a month after his high-profile move with fellow Linklaters partner Richard Youle.

Bagshaw co-led a team advising Czech antivirus company Avast Software and a group of shareholders on the sale of a 40% stake to private equity firm CVC Capital Partners – a deal that values the company at $1bn (£612m).
