NEW YORK, March 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Morrison Foerster is pleased to announce the arrival of Scott Behar as a partner in the Mergers + Acquisitions Group in the Transactions Department, based in the New York office. Behar brings to the firm nearly two decades of experience representing high-profile public and private technology clients in a variety of U.S. and cross-border transactions, including mergers, investments, stock and asset acquisitions, and divestitures.
"Scott is a strong addition to the firm, bringing tremendous experience focused exclusively on advising on prominent technology M&A transactions on both the East and West Coasts," said Spencer Klein, co-chair of the firm's global Mergers + Acquisitions Group.
