Partner

Jason is a project development attorney advising clients on energy and infrastructure projects that are largescale, complex and highly technical. His practice is focused on helping clients to effectively deliver projects in the Middle East and Africa that contribute to nation building, job creation and enhancing access to power and clean water.

Jason works on transactions that are large, complex and global, including nuclear power in the UAE; downstream and petrochemicals in Saudi Arabia; and LNG-to-power in Malta, multiple “deal-of-the-year” winners.

Jason’s practice is well suited for highly technical, first-of-a-kind projects in multinational settings. As a former engineer for a leading nuclear reactor supplier, he readily understands the mechanical underpinnings of a development project and can straightforwardly recognize and align the interaction between a deal’s legal framework and its core asset. He works seamlessly with clients’ commercial and technical teams to ensure the project contracts not only match the commercial deal, but are also within the client’s risk envelope. In addition, given the nature of global scale projects, Jason has been based in New York, Abu Dhabi, Tokyo, Saudi Arabia and now London. He is dexterous in navigating the nuanced complexities of multinational deals, an essential skill for productive negotiations.
