Laura Davis Smith is a Florida Bar board certified marital and family law expert, one of only 279 Florida lawyers who have earned this designation. She practices at the trial and appellate levels, with the goal to assist parties in reaching positive outcomes despite the often-negative issues associated with divorce, and to assist parties in protecting their children, their assets and themselves during what is likely the most difficult time in their lives. In 2017 and 2019, she was named the winner of The Best Lawyers in America “Lawyer of the Year” award for family law in Miami.
