The OCBA is pleased to announce that OCBA member James Scheinkman, a partner in Snell & Wilmer’s Orange County and Los Angeles offices, has been elected to the board of directors for Orange County United Way. Scheinkman began his three-year term on June 27, 2017.

Orange County United Way was established in 1984 to change the future for the next generation of residents. The plan calls to mobilize local businesses, community organizations, governmental agencies and individuals to make a long-term measurable difference in the lives of local individuals and families. The Snell & Wilmer Orange County office participates in an annual week-long fundraising event campaign, and raised over $36,000 in support of United Way this year.

Scheinkman's practice focuses on assisting mid-market companies and their owners in mergers and acquisitions, financings, joint ventures, corporate governance and shareholder dispute resolution, securities offerings, technology development and transfers, executive compensation and other corporate and commercial matters.

He earned his B.A. from State University of New York, Binghamton, and his J.D. from New York University School of Law. For the full press release, click here.
