Bio

Jason D. Cohn is a founding partner of Cohn & Swartzon LLP and a California lawyer with nearly 30 years of experience, including almost 25 years representing individuals facing catastrophic injury and loss. A second-generation attorney, Jason brings extensive litigation and negotiation experience to complex personal injury matters throughout California. From the firm’s Irvine and Tulare offices, he represents injury victims throughout the state, with a strong presence in Orange County and the Central Valley.

Jason began his legal career in complex business litigation before transitioning into insurance defense, where he defended catastrophic injury cases. That background provides Jason an invaluable insider perspective, allowing him to anticipate, challenge, and dismantle the tactics insurers use to delay, deny, and defend claims.

A cornerstone of Jason’s practice is his unwavering commitment to direct attorney involvement at every stage of a case. He provides a sophisticated level of representation that prioritizes one-on-one advocacy, personally managing all high-level negotiations with insurance adjusters and the insurance carrier’s attorneys. By handling the complexities of the litigation process himself, Jason ensures his clients can remain focused entirely on their physical and emotional healing.

Throughout their careers, the attorneys of Cohn & Swartzon LLP have collectively recovered significant compensation for injured clients in California, bringing decades of experience handling complex and high-stakes personal injury litigation.

Jason is a Lifetime Member of the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum® and holds an AV Preeminent® Rating from Martindale-Hubbell®, reflecting peer evaluation of legal ability and ethical standards. He also maintains a 10/10 Superb rating from Avvo. His professional record includes long-standing peer recognition through Super Lawyers®, beginning with Rising Star selections (2011–2012) followed by 13 consecutive years on the Super Lawyers® list (2014–2026).

In the 2026 Best Law Firms® rankings published by Best Lawyers®, Cohn & Swartzon LLP was recognized in Orange County for its litigation work. The firm received Regional Tier 2 recognition for Product Liability Litigation – Plaintiffs and Regional Tier 3 recognition for Personal Injury Litigation – Plaintiffs. These rankings are based on peer review, client feedback, and independent evaluation within specific practice areas and regions.

Together, those experiences inform how Jason approaches representation in practice. He remains directly involved at every stage of a case, prioritizes clear and timely communication, and maintains accountability for strategic decisions from intake through resolution. His work is guided by a long-standing belief that clients facing serious injury deserve straightforward guidance and committed advocacy when legal outcomes carry lasting consequences.

"My goal is to provide the level of service I would expect for my own friends and family. We fight the insurance companies directly, so our clients have the space and peace of mind to heal." – Jason D. Cohn
