Mihran Yezbekyan Honored By Leadership Council on Legal Diversity With Inaugural Atlas Award

Los Angeles - Barnes & Thornburg associate Mihran Yezbekyan has been named an Atlas Award recipient by the Leadership Council on Legal Diversity (LCLD) for his high level of commitment and engagement in the LCLD Pathfinder program.

Created in 2015, the Pathfinder program gives early-career professionals the opportunity to learn about leadership and career development and how to build professional networks. Mihran was selected by Barnes & Thornburg to participate in the seven-month program at the start of 2023.

“One of the great things about participating in the LCLD Pathfinder program was collaborating with and meeting wonderful people from all across the nation,” said Yezbekyan. “I feel energized and inspired after the LCLD Annual Meeting. I gained so much during these past few months participating in the LCLD events and I have been applying these newly acquired skills to the work that I do.”

Yezbekyan’s practice is focused in the areas of product liability and mass torts, consumer class actions, and multidistrict litigation (MDLs).

LCLD is one of the nation’s leading legal organizations promoting diversity, equity and inclusion and was founded to “build a legal profession that looks like the nation it serves.”
