Paige L. Davis

ShareholderCorporate, Securities and M&A Team Co-Chair

Paige Davis counsels clients on all aspects of U.S. and cross-border transactions, including mergers and acquisitions, restructures, organizational forms, exit strategies, commercial contracts, and other business operations. She works closely with multi-national companies in an outside general counsel-like role to address legal needs arising or connected with their U.S. acquisitions, activities, and operations across jurisdictions.

A native Canadian, she has a broad understanding of business and national security regulations in Canada and the U.S. and provides clients with strategic business advice to prevent or navigate compliance issues. Paige regularly advises U.S. and foreign entities on all aspects of import and export compliance, as well as CFIUS notices and advice.

She also works with many closely-held businesses, professional service companies, and their owners to develop successful business plans, including addressing licensing matters, as well as helping to develop business succession strategies.

Paige has been described by Chambers® USA’s Guide to America’s Leading Lawyers for Business as “tenacious, smart, and experienced,” who is “patient in explaining situations in layman’s terms so you feel comfortable.”
