Hello, my name is Scott Linden and I am a California licensed corporate and business attorney practicing in the City of Pasadena, in Los Angeles, CA.  

Parts of my family came to California long ago by wagon train...many, many generations ago...and helped with settling much of the Southern California area.  I am a third generation U.C.L.A. Bruin, (I bleed blue and gold), and a stout advocate for the legalization of marijuana for its numerous medicinal and commercial uses as well as its well-documented, historically religious nature.

I passed the California Bar in 1997 and was sworn in for the State of California and for the Southern Federal District Court.  In 1998 I took and passed the New York State Bar, but I chose not to swear in; I decided to practice in California.

Since then, I have been the general counsel for several large corporations including a nationwide plumbing contractor and supplier and a dental supply company who, at the time, was earning over $100,000,000 annually.

I now work with Schofield, Grossman & Linden, located in Pasadena since 1978, the firm has a strong base in Trusts, Estates, Tax and General Business Law,  

I am a licensed numismatist and I avidly collect large, small, colonial and obsolete currency dating to the late 1700's. I also collect coins from the early 1787 Fugio Cent (made from the copper that held the powder keg barrels given to the US by the French during the Revolution) to the modern US gold & Silver bullion.
