Speaker Bio
For more than twenty years, Liz Davis, an M&A partner at Burke Warren in Chicago, has led complex transactions for clients across multiple industries, including healthcare and pharmaceutical, manufacturing, technology, insurance, and food and beverage. Her clients range from startups to multinational public companies. As a true deal lawyer, she brings a business-oriented resourcefulness to each transaction – preferring to view potential deals through a lens of opportunity, cooperation, and creativity.

In addition to her M&A practice, Liz is an experienced corporate generalist, often acting as outside general counsel to her clients in the United States and abroad. She navigates emerging issues of law, trains clients on best practices for legal compliance, and learns about her clients’ businesses. Liz believes that by building strong relationships of trust – with her clients, colleagues, and other stakeholders – she is best able to provide meaningful guidance through legal and practical business challenges.

Liz is leader within her firm and in her community. Most recently, Liz has served as the U.S. Regional Representative to the global Executive Committee of Lawyers Associated Worldwide (LAW) as well as Chair of LAW’s Recruiting Committee.
