Jason W. Burge

Jason is the go-to attorney for victims of financial misconduct in single plaintiff, mass action, and class action cases against banks, loan servicers, stockbrokers, and investment firms.

With a background in economics, Jason can distill complex financial transactions into terms that judges, arbitrators, and jurors can understand.  Chambers & Partners describes him as “financially well-versed and very capable in translating difficult financial concepts into common tongue.”

He represents individual and institutional investors and borrowers in securities fraud and lender liability cases in state court, federal court and bankruptcy court, as well as FINRA arbitrations. He handles disputes involving allegations of statutory violations, breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, misrepresentation, and fraud from fact investigation through trial and appellate practice.

Jason also represents plaintiffs and defendants in class action litigation.  Currently, he serves as interim lead counsel for a putative nationwide class of student loan debtors alleging discharge violations against Navient.  He is also defending an automobile insurer against putative state-wide class actions alleging improper adjustment of total loss claims.

Finally, as a former clerk on the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, Jason has argued before the United States Fifth Circuit and the Louisiana Third and Fourth Circuit. Jason regularly briefs and argues state and federal appeals across a broad range of practice areas.
