Jason uses his broad litigation experience to advise his clients on risk-mitigating techniques to avoid or minimize litigation. In that vein, Jason has helped shape and refine Shook's Strategic Early Case Assessment, a key component of Shook’s client-centric litigation management model. Jason has also published articles and presented on how clients can leverage recent developments in risk allocation and mitigation case law to better account for risk in their various industries. In addition to trial work, Jason advises his clients in a pre-litigation context involving complex issues of insurance coverage and indemnity. He is also an experienced privacy and cybersecurity litigator, successfully defending companies in class action lawsuits arising from cybersecurity events and alleged data breaches. More recently he has been called on to defend companies targeted by a wave of class action lawsuits arising from the use of website marketing technology like session replay, tags, and pixels.
Jason is sought by companies to represent them in trials and lawsuits involving cyber-security and data privacy, commercial litigation, products liability, and personal injury. While Jason’s main area of practice is litigation work-up and trials, he is also well-versed in pre-suit risk mitigation and analysis, including published articles providing compliance counsel; early dispositive motion practice with a history of favorable published opinions; all aspects of discovery both written and deposition work; and post-trial appellate review and argument.
