Jason’s practice is concentrated on the representation and counseling of insurance companies in litigation and disputes involving insurance coverage. He represents insurers in actions filed in jurisdictions throughout the country and in a variety of insurance coverage contexts, including actions regarding coverage for mass tort liability claims, environmental contamination claims, construction claims, and professional liability claims.
