“I am honored to receive this distinguished award from ONYX Magazine, and to be recognized alongside such inspiring company,” Davis said. “I have always been dedicated in my efforts to give back to my community, while also looking for opportunities to serve as a mentor and leader within my law firm and throughout the business community. Only through our collective efforts can we continue to make our communities the best they can be.”

For more than a decade, he has overseen the office and served as one of several attorneys leading the firm’s efforts to be a dominant player in the technology industry both in South Florida and beyond. Davis focuses his corporate and securities practice on domestic and cross-border mergers and acquisitions, capital markets transactions, and large financings.
In addition to his practice, Davis serves in several civic capacities that allow him to leverage his professional interests to assist the community. He is chairman of the board of directors of Nicklaus Children’s Hospital, co-founded and serves as general counsel of the eMerge Americas global technology conference, and is the community representative director of The Adrienne Arsht Center Trust.
