For nearly 25 years, Jame P. Mascaro has advised families, entrepreneurs, and business leaders on protecting wealth, managing transactions, and resolving disputes.

Jame grew up in rural New York, where hard work and resilience shaped his character. Balancing early jobs like shoveling snow, mowing lawns, and delivering newspapers with playing hockey and baseball, he learned the value of hard work from a young age. That discipline carried him to Boston University, where he studied Philosophy and Business Administration. He earned his law degree from Loyola Law School and became a member of the State Bar of California in 2000. 

Jame started his legal career at a leading litigation firm, handling high-stakes cases against some of the nation’s largest law firms and corporations. That experience taught him to anticipate risks, craft strategies, and succeed in adversarial settings. However, it also taught him that the best way to protect clients is to anticipate and resolve problems before they become costly, protracted conflicts.

That lesson shaped the vision behind Mascaro Law Firm. Today, Jame combines his litigation expertise with a proactive, strategic approach, serving as a trusted advisor on matters including:

• Complex business litigation
• Business transactions and general counsel
• Estate planning and probate
• Trust and estate administration
• Business succession and asset protection
• Philanthropy and legacy planning

When he founded Mascaro Law Firm, Jame aimed to build more than just a law practice. His goal was to be a reliable, trusted resource — someone clients could turn to first for advice on issues like business disputes, business transactions, and estate planning.

Today, most clients find their way to Mascaro Law Firm through referrals — whether from families Jame has advised for years, their accountants, wealth managers, or fellow attorneys. Over time, many of these relationships span generations, with families repeatedly seeking his judgment, discretion, and support.

When he’s not practicing law, Jame stays active in the community. He’s a member of several professional organizations, including the American Bar Association, the Orange County Bar Association, and the Orange County Trial Lawyers Association. He was previously chairman of the Orange County Bar Association’s Education Committee, an attorney coach for the Constitutional Rights Foundation of Orange County’s Mock Trial program, and president of the El Modena High School Baseball Booster Club.
