Prior to joining Liggio & Cornell, Jason was an equity partner in an AmLaw 100 law firm with representative clients that included Hess Energy, JP Morgan and JFK International Airport in Delaware state and federal courts. Jason devotes his practice to representing Florida insureds who seek coverage for health benefits or property damage claims.
