Winston & Strawn Partners Eva Davis and Daniel Passage were profiled as visionaries in the inaugural issue of the Banking & Finance Magazine from the L.A. Times Brand Publishing team. The futurists profiled were nominated by their peers and selected by the Brand Publishing division with input from readers. 

Eva Davis works with some of the most active private equity funds in the country. She provides commercial advice alongside strategic M&A counseling when negotiating on behalf of U.S. and global public and private companies, and private equity funds involving significant transactional matters. As co-chair of Winston’s Private Equity Practice — which includes about 75 lawyers—Eva oversees a group that last year handled more than 200 deals with a total deal value of close to $18 billion. Despite the challenges presented by COVID-19, she personally led over 10 deals valued at more than $1.4 billion in 2020.

As a woman in the predominantly male private equity field, Eva built her practice entirely on her own by hitting the pavement, slowly building relationships across the industry, and leveraging her knowledge to spot trends quickly and to synthesize and share that information with clients and prospects.

Co-chair of Winston’s Structured Finance Practice, Daniel Passage has more than 25 years of experience structuring programs for the origination, financing, and securitization of novel or esoteric financial assets. He is among the nation’s leading attorneys in the securitization and finance of several cutting-edge financial products, including life settlements, Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) assets (residential and commercial), and non-bank fintech or “marketplace lending.”

In recent years, Daniel has represented investment banks, fund managers, and originators in ground-breaking financings and securitizations of nearly $5 billion of residential and commercial PACE assets.

He has represented originators in product development, non-bank lending platform construction, and the financing and securitization of nearly $6 billion of consumer, small business, and franchise loans and receivables through online “marketplace lending” platforms.
