Scott J. Grossberg, JD, CCH, CLC, NLP PRESIDENT   R

Scott Grossberg is both a proven litigator and a highly sought-after public speaker, trainer, and executive coach.

After obtaining his undergraduate degree from Cal Poly Pomona, Scott received his Juris Doctor degree from the University of La Verne College of Law in 1986. He is admitted to the Supreme Court of California and the Supreme Court of the United States.

Scott formerly represented public entities, public employees, and government pooling authorities in matters ranging from civil rights violations, defamation, police liability, and taxpayer lawsuits to complex, multi-jurisdictional matters. He was also called upon to offer legal opinions regarding cross-jurisdictional contracts and task force agreements, and asked to draft solutions to the challenges those situations present.

Scott’s easy versatility in providing representation for his clients in even the most intricate and politically sensitive issues is illustrated by his successful handling of agencies in situations ranging from matters concerning the Federal Telecommunications Act to acting as chief negotiator during labor disputes.

He was also the host of the acclaimed podcast, "Lawsuit-Proofing Your City" which was recognized by Apple in both its "New and Notable" and "What's Hot" categories.

Scott was lead trial counsel in four published opinions regarding the right of a municipality to set reasonable aesthetic standards for determining applications for the placement of wireless facilities: Sprint PCS, Inc. v. City of Palos Verdes Estates (2009) 583 F.3d 716; Sprint PCS, Inc. v. City of Palos Verdes Estates (2007) 487 F.3d 694; Sprint PCS, Inc. v. City of La Cañada Flintridge (2006) 448 F.3d 1067; Sprint PCS v. City of La Cañada Flintridge (2006) 435 F.3d 993. The 2009 case resulted in a seminal decision that has been cited statewide in support of a municipality’s rights.

Scott's appellate cases also include:

Appellant v. City of Needles (1996) (9th Cir. 95-55161)

Appellant v. City of Dana Point (2017) (9th Cir. 17-56200)

Appellant v. City of Loma Linda (2019) (CA Court of Appeal E067781 - Not officially published)

Appellant v. City of Big Bear Lake (2019) (CA Court of Appeal E067555)

Scott also formerly provided legal services and counsel to the insurance defense industry, business owners, and those in the entertainment industry and focuses much of his time on technology and internet-related issues. He is the bestselling author of " The Million Dollar iPad " and " The iPad Lawyer " and published two technology-focused blogs that provide cutting edge and real-world technology solutions.

Scott has been a featured speaker and published author for many years on numerous topics including media relations, social media, technology, public speaking, memory, motivation, design immunity, handling tort claims, and police civil liability including providing past training to the Department of the Navy, Federal Bureau of Investigation and numerous law enforcement agencies throughout Southern and Central California. He is the creator of the " P3 Blueprint :: Present. Persuade. Pitch " - an innovative approach to public speaking.

Scott has served as a special prosecutor for the County of San Bernardino and as both a Judge Pro Tempore and settlement officer for the Counties of San Bernardino and Los Angeles.

Today, Scott offers coaching and training to both the private and public sector on a variety of topics.
