Day Pitney Brings On Boutique CEO as Fla. Real Estate Head
Day Pitney Florida Real Estate practice chair Daniel Diaz Leyva was featured in Law360 FL Pulse article, "Day Pitney Brings On Boutique CEO as Fla. Real Estate Head." Diaz Leyva joined the firm's Miami office with a team of four including Attorney Amanda G. Gomez and paralegals Ana Siddiqui, Ana Laura Garcia and Dayleen Anchia.
When asked about why he joined, Diaz Leyva commented, "I was always looking to marry our execution capabilities as real estate corporate practitioners in Florida with a conduit in the Northeast, with all the folks that are moving here every single day. I know Day Pitney has an eye towards Florida just because they're heavy in the Northeast, and I'm sure they're seeing a substantial amount of capital flows and clients moving to Florida, so it's just a win-win."
"With the addition of Danny and his team, we are able to further complement and strengthen our Real Estate practice, while also expanding the scope of our corporate transactional services in South Florida through private equity, mergers and acquisitions, investment funds, and family office work that his team is involved with," added R. Scott Beach, Chair of Day Pitney's Corporate and Business Law department.
"I've known Danny for years. He is a skilled practitioner who has built an impressive real estate practice and team," added Manuel A. Garcia-Linares, Day Pitney Florida Managing Partner. "He is an active member of the South Florida business, legal and philanthropic communities and will fit seamlessly into our firm's burgeoning South Florida practice."
