Jay is an experienced commercial litigator with trial court and appellate court experience litigating complex commercial disputes, including insurance coverage disputes, municipal disputes, and solid waste-related disputes.

As chair of Foster Garvey’s Insurance Coverage practice, Jay exclusively represents policyholders to protect their interests at every stage of the process. Jay works with policyholders to provide timely notice of claims, to respond to the insurer’s requests for information, and to challenge the insurer’s coverage denial. To the extent litigation is necessary, Jay has extensive experience litigating insurance coverage disputes at the trial and appellate courts alike.

Jay also handles a wide variety of municipal disputes on behalf of cities and counties throughout Washington. Those disputes include public disclosure disputes, construction disputes, state and federal constitutional challenges to local solid waste regulations, long-term solid waste contract disputes, and regulatory enforcement actions.
