Jason is an accomplished litigator who represents defendants in shareholder disputes and other high-stakes commercial litigation and corporate governance matters. He represents clients based in the US and Israel and a number of other countries.
Based in New York, Jason defends issuers, officers, directors, underwriters, and others in trial and appellate courts throughout the country and before the Securities and Exchange Commission. He has provided representation in some of the largest securities fraud cases in history — successfully defending more than 60 class, derivative, bankruptcy, and individual actions arising from the unraveling of Bernie Madoff's Ponzi scheme and playing a significant role in Worldcom, Refco, AIG, and other high-profile cases. He regularly helps clients resolve disputes involving federal and state shareholder- and fraud-related statutes, including the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Securities Act of 1933, the RICO Act, and Delaware law.
An innovative, effective litigator, Jason leverages his business insight and knowledge of his clients' industries — particularly in the life sciences, financial services, and technology sectors — to deploy legal strategies that frequently lead to early case dismissals.
Prior to joining Mintz, Jason was a partner in the New York office of another prominent law firm. He earned his JD, cum laude, from Harvard Law School and an AB, magna cum laude, from Brown University.
