Meet Scott Mayer:

Scott Mayer is an accomplished 30-plus-year national commercial real estate attorney and executive who has worked in both the private and public sectors. A licensed real estate broker, his practice focuses on complex transactions and litigation involving real property acquisitions, dispositions, commercial lease negotiations, land development, secured real property loan transactions, public/private partnerships, and broker, landlord and tenant matters. His unique background and experience as an attorney and counselor, real estate developer and principal, and C-suite executive enable him to evaluate client matters from both the legal and business perspective, making him an extraordinarily valuable teammate for his clients.

Prior to returning to his law practice, Scott was the Chief Operating Officer of a privately-held family office in Beverly Hills, with approximately $1 billion in commercial real estate assets under management. He was responsible for the company's real estate portfolio, including acquisitions and dispositions, lease negotiations, development, joint venture projects, and asset management.

Scott was formerly the Chief Real Estate Officer for Orange County, California. During his five-year tenure, he managed a 35-person team and outside consultants, brokers, and attorneys responsible for overseeing the County's vast real estate holdings, including approximately 12 million square feet of improved and undeveloped properties. He was tasked by the Board of Supervisors with leveraging previously under-utilized County real estate assets to generate new uses and greater revenue streams, including the formation of innovative public/private partnerships for the revitalization of Dana Point Harbor, the Santa Ana Civic Center Master Plan, and multiple mixed-used development projects encompassing over 1,900 acres of County property.

Before assuming his government position, Scott was the President and General Counsel of a national real estate development firm with multiple offices and projects in 19 states with values over $500 million. He led the firm's acquisition, leasing, financing, and development activities and managed its legal and corporate affairs for over 15 years.
