ABOUT MONTE DAVIS LAW

Attorney, Monte K. Davis was born at St. Joseph’s hospital in Atlanta in 1965. He went to High Point Elementary School, Sandy Springs Middle School, and Ridgeview High School. Although he played sports and did well scholastically in grade school, he was always better at arguing and debate than anything else. 

He spent two years at Georgia State University (“GSU”), followed by three years at the University of Georgia (“UGA”), and graduated with a BS in Psychology and accepted an offer to attend the GSU College of Law, part-time program.

His focus at GSU College of Law was on the following subjects: 

• Georgia trial practice and procedure (civil and criminal)

• Litigation (basic and advanced)

• Georgia and Federal Rules of Evidence (basic and advanced)

• Participated in extracurricular mock trial competitions (3 of 5 years)

• Won a regional championship, finished in second place in two national invitational competitions, was awarded “Best Advocate” honors once

• Received several personal achievement and/or appreciation awards from the GSU College of Law

He continued to volunteer his time and experience as an assistant coach for the Student Trial Lawyers Association (STLA) under the direction of Tom Jones, formerly with the Fulton County District Attorney's Office, over the next three years following graduation. 

He also volunteered my time and experience for two years as an assistant mock trial coach for Centennial High School. One of the Law School teams that he helped to coach post-graduation won GSU’s first National Mock Trial Championship. Mr. Davis is honored to pass along his years of experience by teaching young, aspiring litigators how to mentally approach, prepare, and present cases for a successful resolution at trial.
