Business Journal Honors Local General Counsels

Nearly 400 business leaders attended the Business Journal’s 13th annual General Counsel Awards, held Nov. 10. The event recognizes the significant role in-house counsels play in the success of businesses within the community.

Arnie Pinkston, corporate vice president and general counsel at Irvine’s Edwards Lifesciences Corp. (NYSE: EW), delivered the keynote address.

Pinkston, a 2017 award winner, previously served as GC at Allergan, where he successfully helped the company stymie a hostile takeover bid.

Franco Tenerelli, chief legal officer at Newport Beach homebuilder Landsea Homes Corp. (Nasdaq: LSEA), in the Public Company category.

Jon Howell, general counsel of Irvine-based Hyperice, in the Private Company category.
