David Suchar and Jason Lien Again Named Stand-Out Lawyers by Thomson Reuters

March 4, 2025

David Suchar, partner, vice chair of Maslon's Board of Directors and Executive Committee, and chair of Maslon's Construction & Real Estate Litigation Group, and Partner Jason Lien of the Construction & Real Estate Litigation Group, have been recognized as 2025 Stand-Out Lawyers by Thomson Reuters for the second consecutive year.

Both were independently nominated as one of the three most outstanding lawyers their clients worked with as part of Thomson Reuters’ global research with senior in-house counsel.

David is a skilled trial attorney and former federal prosecutor who regularly represents clients in construction and insurance coverage disputes and a variety of commercial litigation. A Fellow of the American College of Construction Lawyers and the American College of Coverage Counsel, he is one of three lawyers in the U.S. invited to join both organizations. Who's Who Legal/Lexology named David one of eight U.S. 2025 Global Elite Thought Leaders in the category of Client Choice-Construction and described him as "an impressive trial lawyer whose practice spans the spectrum of construction matters from insurance to payment claims." He was recognized by Lawdragon in its 500 Leading Litigators in America ranking (2025) and by Chambers USA as one of seven Minnesota lawyers ranked Band 1 for Construction (2024).

Jason focuses his litigation practice on representing clients from the construction, real estate, financial services, food, and railroad industries. He regularly appears in federal and state court on behalf of design-build firms, general contractors, architects, engineers, specialty contractors, suppliers, property management companies, real estate owners, and lenders. Jason has been ranked by Chambers USA in construction law since 2016 and has been described as "an esteemed trial lawyer with a wealth of experience assisting with litigation mandates relating to construction defects and insurance coverage issues." Prior to joining Maslon in 2002, Jason honed his trial and appellate skills as a Naval Officer with the United States Navy Judge Advocate General's Corps, where he led hundreds of courts-martial, administrative hearings, and military appeals.
