Jason’s practice focuses primarily on civil and criminal litigation. His experience includes state and federal criminal defense, real estate litigation, business litigation, personal injury, and family law. He has tried a wide variety of cases to jury verdict, including criminal cases, real estate title disputes, land condemnation, contract disputes, and personal injury cases. Although Jason has a great deal of litigation experience, it is his practical experience that sets him apart from other attorneys. Long before Jason was a lawyer, he was a husband, father and employee. He knows what it is like to face an uncertain future and to make decisions that may affect the rest of your life. After working as a forester for several years, he grew concerned about the changes in the forest products industry. With two young children and no income, Jason and his wife sold their house and relocated so he could begin law school at Campbell University. During law school, Jason participated on two moot court teams and served as Managing Editor of the Campbell Law Review. Jason then practiced with Rose Rand Wallace Attorneys, P.A. in Wilson, N.C. from 2005 until 2011. Over several years, the focus of his practice shifted from representing large corporations and municipalities to representing individuals. In June 2011, he opened a solo practice so he could concentrate on meeting the needs of his individual clients. Jason was recognized by Super Lawyers as a North Carolina Rising Star in General Litigation for 2013. He also has a peer review rating of BV® in Martindale-Hubbell. Jason is a deacon and Sunday School teacher at First Baptist Church in Wilson, N.C. He has a 14-year-old son and an 11-year-old daughter.
