He regularly appears in federal and state court on behalf of design-build firms, general contractors, architects, engineers, specialty contractors, property management companies, real estate owners, and lenders. A portion of Jason's practice also involves representing a major U.S. railroad in disputes throughout Minnesota and North Dakota. Recognized by Chambers USA for construction law in 2016-2019, he is described as "an esteemed trial lawyer with a wealth of experience assisting with litigation mandates relating to construction defects and insurance coverage issues."
