The fourth attorney to join the firm’s Miami office in 1956, Mr. Banick served as managing shareholder for a 25-year period and is largely responsible for growing the firm’s practice areas, shaping the firm’s culture and establishing mentoring programs.
A skillful litigator, Mr. Banick argued before state and federal courts and he handled many cases for leading companies, such as Gray Line Sightseeing Tours and IBM. Mr. Banick devoted a considerable portion of his practice to securities litigation and arbitration.
