Jason’s practice focuses on federal and state consumer lending and payments laws, including those that apply to installment loans, vehicle-secured loans, lines of credit, unsecured loans, credit cards, point-of-sale finance, and timeshare/vacation finance.

He counsels providers of consumer financial services, including banks, licensed lenders, and fintech providers, on regulatory compliance matters and government supervisory and enforcement matters.

Jason regularly provides guidance on electronic payments and payment network rules; electronic contracting and mobile commerce; online banking; retail installment sales; preparing for examinations by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB); responding to CFPB supervisory requests (including so-called PARR letters); Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code; lease-purchase transactions and consumer protection laws, such as the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), Truth in Lending Act (TILA), Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA), Electronic Funds Transfer Act (EFTA), Electronic Signatures in Global, and National Commerce Act (E-SIGN); UDAAP statutes prohibiting unfair, deceptive, and abusive acts and practices; and the CFPB’s Rule on Payday, Vehicle Title, and Certain High-Cost installment Loans (Payday Rule).

He also routinely counsels clients on issues related to online small business lending, electronic consents, contracts and disclosures, and recurring payment methods.

Earlier in his career, Jason served as lead in-house counsel to a premier consumer financial services company where he advised on an array of regulatory, legal, and compliance issues.
