Jason N. Haycock

Jason Haycock is a seasoned litigator with extensive experience at every phase of litigation, including successful first chair trial experience. He focuses on complex commercial disputes, including cases involving trade secrets, contracts, business torts, corporate veil-piercing and successorship claims, and environmental contamination. He regularly litigates in both federal and state courts, and he has briefed and successfully argued numerous cases at the appellate level.

Jason’s clients range from top Fortune 50 companies, to startups, to public universities, and nonprofit organizations. His clients are often industry leaders in technology, such as software, SaaS, Artificial Intelligence, semiconductors, consumer products, cloud computing, infrastructure, and clean energy.   

No matter the client, each case and each client’s litigation objectives are unique, so Jason crafts litigation strategies designed to achieve each client’s goals for each case.  Sometimes that involves positioning the case for early resolution, and sometimes it involves taking the case all the way to trial.  In all instances, Jason best serves his clients by providing direct, honest, and actionable legal advice to meet their objectives.   

While serving as a zealous advocate for his clients inside the courtroom, Jason also serves as a trusted advisor outside of the courtroom. Not every challenge confronting clients involves litigation, and oftentimes Jason is called on simply to assist with creative problem-solving or to provide strategic insight based on his extensive experience. 

Jason has also been recognized as a Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch® in America, a peer nominated recognition for exceptional legal work.

During law school, Jason served as a judicial extern for Judge Paul L. Friedman of the US District Court for the District of Columbia. He also served as a student lawyer handling general civil matters in the US Superior Court for the District of Columbia through his school’s general practice clinic. In the summer of his second year of law school, he served as a law clerk at a boutique litigation firm in Washington, DC.
