As Chief Legal Officer, Scott Bennett leads the team that provides legal guidance and support to Contexture and oversees the organization’s compliance program.

Before joining Contexture, Scott was a partner at the Phoenix law firm Coppersmith Brockelman. In private practice, Scott helped hospitals, healthcare providers and health technology companies navigate a variety of legal issues, including U.S. and international privacy laws; data breaches; government investigations; litigation; and healthcare-specific laws and regulations like the Stark Law and Anti-Kickback Statute.

Scott has earned certifications in both U.S. and European privacy law from the International Association of Privacy Professionals (CIPP/US and CIPP/E).

Scott received his law degree from the University of California, Berkeley School of Law, and a bachelor’s degree in journalism from Arizona State University. (Go Devils!)

Outside of work, you are most likely to find Scott hiking on a Phoenix trail, camping in the woods or baking in his kitchen (his specialty is macarons).
