A trial lawyer by trade, Jason is "Board Certified Criminal Law - Texas Board of Legal Specialization".  The Texas Board of Legal Specialization previously stated: "Certified Criminal Law specialists have experience in the preparation and trial of serious criminal matters. They have extensive knowledge of state and federal constitutional law, evidence, procedure and penal laws involved in these matters."

Jason is a true "Texas Boy" having lived all over the great State of Texas. Jason spent his early years in Freeport and eventually moved to Bandera, Texas where he graduated from high school. Then Jason attended the University of Texas at San Antonio ("UTSA") where he became a student leader and 1999 Greek Man of the Year.

Jason attended Baylor Law School in Waco, Texas. While at Baylor Law, Jason and his Moot Court partner made it to the Quarter Finals of the school competition. Jason and his Mock Trial partner then moved on to achieve the largest plaintiff's personal injury verdict in Baylor Law history at the time.

Jason began his professional career as a criminal prosecutor in Henderson County, Texas. Jason established himself as a no-nonsense prosecutor that was always willing and ready to go to trial. Jason then moved to the Rio Grande Valley where he continued as a criminal prosecutor with the Hidalgo County District Attorneys Office. While an Assistant D.A. in Hidalgo County, Jason's most notable criminal trial was a conviction and prison sentence on a "One-Punch Murder" case. 

After prosecuting, Jason opened his own practice for a short period of time before joining the law firm of Kittleman, Thomas & Gonzales, LLP where his practice focuses exclusively on litigation and trial, primarily in the areas of catastrophic personal injury, commercial (business) litigation, and criminal defense litigation.

In 2008, Jason successfully defended an innocent man charged with capital murder and received a verdict of "not guilty" on all counts from the jury.
