Welcome to our tenth annual special post-event section honoring the leading general counsels and firm-based attorneys in the Los Angeles area for 2020. Considering the fact that there are now more than 25,000 attorneys who count themselves as members of the Los Angeles Bar Association, being a leader and a standout in that field is particularly impressive.
Our virtual celebration of legal excellence took place as part of our Leaders in Law Awards earlier this month. The Los Angeles Business Journal honored the accomplishments and significant roles that in-house attorneys play in the success of their business enterprises and also recognized accomplishments of leading attorneys in firms within the Los Angeles business community. You can find the archived video of the event at labusinessjournal.com/lil2020.
We received nearly 250 nominations in various categories and are recognizing the very finest for exceptional legal skill and achievement across the full spectrum of responsibility, exemplary leadership and for contributions to the Los Angeles community at large.
Please enjoy reading about all of this year’s finalists and honorees that where unveiled at our live digital awards event. Congratulations to the 2020 Class of Leaders in Law!
