The role of in-house counsel has never been more important or
more visible as companies face increasingly complex legal and
regulatory challenges. The Los Angeles Business Journal would
like to acknowledge the significant role that in-house counsel
plays in the success of a business enterprise and recognize the
accomplishments of leading in-house attorneys within the Los
Angeles business community.
Candidates in each category will be recognized for exceptional
legal skill and achievement across the full spectrum of in-house
responsibility, exemplary leadership as evidenced by the highest
professional and ethical standards, and for contributions to the
Los Angeles community at large.
