Renowned Litigator Jason Williams Joins WSHB’s Nevada Office
July 31, 2019(Las Vegas, NV) WSHB is proud to announce the arrival of its newest partner, Jason W. Williams, to the Firm’s Nevada office. Long considered to be a “go-to” lawyer for complex construction defect disputes, Jason handles all facets of construction litigation spanning from single family disputes to commercial projects, from shovel to completion. He also is well regarded for his work in complex civil litigation and coverage issues.
“Jason is widely known to the construction community throughout the nation, he consistently delivers solid results and enjoys a stellar reputation,” said Stephen Henning, one of the co-founders of WSHB. “He is extremely driven, having started out as a construction paralegal and is now regarded as a problem solver for some of the most challenging issues presented to our nation’s developers and general contractors.”
He comes to WSHB after two decades at Koeller, Nebeker, Carlson, Haluck, LLP where he was a partner. “Nevada enjoys a small community of lawyers and firms, and over the years I have watched WSHB and its legal talent with admiration,” said Williams. “It’s absolutely thrilling to join the Nevada team and a growing national firm.”
An AV-Preeminent attorney, Mr. Williams practice focuses squarely on the representation of developers, builders, and general contractors in construction defect litigation, construction accidents, and other construction-related issues. One of the keys to his success is his strategic use of law in motion to resolve issues through well-executed summary judgement and motions in limine.
In addition to his thriving construction practice, Mr. Williams also possesses a wealth of experience in general liability litigation and insurance coverage. His expertise in the insurance realm emanated from his time in law school, when Mr. Williams worked in the legal department of a California-based insurance company.
Mr. Williams is a graduate of the University of San Diego School of Law. He received his undergraduate degree from San Diego State University. He is licensed to practice in Nevada, California, U.S. District Court, District of Nevada, and U.S. District Court, Southern District of California.
