Mark E. Ellinghouse '06 of Weintraub Tobin has been named a 2020 40 Under 40 honoree by the Sacramento Business Journal.

He represents individuals and entities large and small, regularly advising clients regarding corporate transactional matters including formation, mergers and acquisitions, strategic partnering and joint ventures.

Ellinghouse's community involvement in Sacramento includes serving five years on the Partnership Council of the American Cancer Society Capital Invitational golf tournament, part of that time as chair. He just finished his term as chair for the Urban Land Institute Young Leaders Group board, fundraising for and taking part in that group’s philanthropic initiatives, and worked with his Leadership Sacramento class to fundraise and complete the class community project at WellSpring Women’s Center.

Additionally, Ellinghouse has taken on leadership roles within Weintraub Tobin, serving on the professional development/marketing committee and the attorney education committee. Before becoming a shareholder, he was Associate Liaison for the Firm, serving as the communication channel between young lawyers and management.
