Biography

After receiving an MBA from UC Berkeley, Scott joined the tax department of a Big-8 accounting firm in San Francisco before turning to the practice of law. He shared his depth of knowledge in business and real estate matters during eight years of teaching business law at the University of Redlands.

Scott is a Certified Specialist in Estate Planning, Probate and Trust Law, designated by the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization. He has lectured on the topic of trust administration to various groups, including the Continuing Education of the Bar and the Southern California Tax and Estate Planning Forum.

Scott was a senior partner at a firm in Redlands, California for fourteen years before relocating and joining a North Bay firm as a managing shareholder and practice group leader. In 2015 Scott separated from that firm and created his own practice tailored to the unique needs of his clients throughout Solano, Yolo, San Bernardino and Riverside counties.

Scott has been selected as a Northern California Super Lawyer each year since 2005. His practice focuses on business, corporate, succession planning, tax, estate planning, and trust administration.
