He has been widely quoted for his expertise in the media, including CNN, CNBC, Bloomberg Law, Fortune, the National Law Journal, The New York Law Journal, The Real Deal, and many more.

BUSINESS LITIGATION Jason represents securities issuers, trading companies, cryptocurrency and other blockchain companies, manufacturers, pharmaceutical companies, real estate entities, banks, hedge funds, private equity funds, and individuals, in a host of different areas, including securities, EB5 financing, real estate, structured transactions, partnership disputes, and intellectual property.
