Since 2003, Jon Patterson has represented clients nationwide in a variety of industries, including financial services, manufacturing, industrial equipment, mobile technology and retail services. Jon is an experienced litigator and trial lawyer who helps clients protect their business interests in disputes related to contracts, torts, premises liability, auto accidents, trade secrets and non-competes.
Throughout his career, Jon has handled cases through all stages of the litigation process, including arbitration hearings, mediations, jury trials, bench trials and injunctive relief hearings. His trial practice has led him to courtrooms across the country, including Wisconsin, Texas, Mississippi, Alabama and Oklahoma.
Since 2013, Jon has served as lead counsel for various national banks and mortgage servicers, managing the litigation of over 2,000 cases nationwide. His financial services practice routinely focuses on advising clients in defense of various claims arising out of alleged violations of state and federal law – namely the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), the Real Estate Settlement and Procedures Act (RESPA), the Truth in Lending Act (TILA), and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA).
