About

Since 1986, I've had the privilege of standing in California courtrooms to help people find justice on the worst day of their lives. I've represented families who lost someone and workers crushed by a system built to outlast them. I've also stood beside businesses bullied by large international corporations.More than 70 jury trials later, I still answer the calls other lawyers send to voicemail, and I often serve as a private mediator on Zoom. If I can help and add value, I step up and do my best to make it happen.I got here by clerking for every attorney who would let me through the door while I worked my way through law school. Nobody handed me a path into this profession. I made a decision early on to learn how to protect people who couldn't protect themselves, and I remain grateful to every mentor who gave me a chance.That decision, along with a lot of help from our team, built Jackson & Wilson, Inc. into a firm I'm proud of. We've been fortunate to receive recognition that includes AV Preeminent, Super Lawyers, OCTLA Trial Lawyer of the Year, and the CLAY Award for California Litigation Lawyer of the Year. I've also had the honor of serving as a Judge Pro Tem and mediating cases where the only way forward ran through what both sides actually needed.Four decades of cross-examination taught me how power hides, and today I write about it. My Substack newsletter, Uncensored Objection, offers investigative legal and political analysis on the stories most commentators step around. I've also written several books, including "Privacy in America," "Everybody Has Something to Hide," "How to Survive Artificial Intelligence in Hollywood," and "Leading with AI."I've been fortunate to speak twice at Tony Robbins' Business Mastery events in front of thousands, and I speak nationally on AI, deepfakes, privacy, trial strategy, and how technology is rewriting the practice of law.If you're facing a fight you were told you can't win, please reach out. If you need an experienced mediator, I'm here for you. The same goes for lawyers who want a sharper edge and leaders looking for a keynote that lands. My team and I would be glad to help.
