Brent Jacobson

Attorney Jacobson joined the firm as an associate in the fall of 2011. Raised in Mosinee, Wisconsin, Brent is a 2002 graduate of Mosinee High School. He went on to graduate with highest honors from business school at Saint Cloud State University in 2006. Brent completed his legal education at West Virginia University, where he graduated third of 152 in his class in 2009. After law school, Brent started his practice in Pennsylvania with the global law firm of K&L Gates as a commercial litigator, with an emphasis on oil and gas litigation and product liability defense.

Attorney Jacobson concentrates on a unique mix of insurance defense, personal injury and business litigation. Though Brent’s practice routinely leads him to State court, he also handles legal disputes that have placed his clients in Federal courts, either because of the citizenship of the parties or because the issues involved raise questions of federal law. Outside of litigation, Brent has also handled arbitrations and mediation on behalf of business clients under the rules of the American Arbitration Association and the International Institute for Conflict Prevention and Resolution.

Brent feels that the greatest enjoyment from practicing law comes from helping a variety of clients find the best possible solution to resolving their legal matters. He is committed to working closely with clients to ensure that their goals are developed into an effective litigation strategy.

Testimonials

” Brent represented my corporation in a lengthy, complicated lawsuit. Having never dealt with any type of lawsuit, I had no idea what to expect. Throughout the entire process Brent kept me well informed about what was happening, why it was happening and what to expect next. He did an excellent job representing me and my corporation, which helped resolve the lawsuit to the satisfaction of all involved. I would highly recommend Brent to anyone needing legal counsel.” TBB
