Jacob has devoted his career to commercial litigation: he thrives on the challenges of each new case, and his competitive nature means he’s driven to win for clients. From 2012 to 2023, he managed a boutique litigation firm in Dallas, where he frequently led trial teams for multimillion dollar cases.

After more than 15 years representing clients in state and federal courts, Jacob would describe his practice area simply as litigation itself, regardless of client industry. He handles partnership, shareholder, and contract disputes; catastrophic injuries; lawsuits involving noncompete agreements or trade secrets; various real estate disputes; and other business litigation matters. His experience includes multiple full defense verdicts won at both jury and bench trials as well as plaintiff verdicts. Jacob joined Husch Blackwell in 2023 with the goal of combining his significant trial experience with the vast industry knowledge the firm is known for.
