"We are very appreciative of all Mr. Anderson and Stradling have done for us.  After 4 years of litigation, we all feel a little lighter now and we are very grateful." - Victor Le

Jason Anderson represents business owners and managers of closely held businesses in disputes over ownership, management and control, and the future direction of the businesses. Ironically, these disputes typically arise due to his clients’ success as owners and managers. Jason has successfully litigated these issues in courts in California and Delaware, and in private arbitration. Outside the court room, Jason employs an aggressive, strategic and practical approach to negotiating a separation of business owners’ interests when resolving these sometimes highly contentious disputes, commonly referred to as a business divorce. Jason views his best outcomes as those that save businesses money and reputational damage in order to ensure long-term growth and success.

In his thirty years of experience, Jason has also represented oil companies, automobile manufacturers, technology companies, medical device and pharmaceutical companies, financial institutions, and celebrities in matters of securities litigation, M&A litigation, consumer/advertising class action litigation, trade secrets, defamation, and real estate. 

Prior to joining Stradling, Jason was a partner at Bingham McCutchen, LLP.  While in law school, Jason served as a law clerk in the United States Attorney’s Office, Civil Division in Los Angeles and the United States Attorney’s Office, Criminal Division in Dallas, Texas.
