In this episode of Celebrating Justice, we dive into the career and advocacy of Texas-based trial lawyer Jason DeSouza. From his beginnings in Toronto, Canada to settling into San Antonio, Texas, Jason shares his journey from considering tax litigation to becoming a champion for personal injury clients in underserved communities.
He recalls his transition to plaintiff work, driven by his passion for fighting against insurance companies and corporations that mistreat individuals who lack resources. Jason recounts powerful client stories, including how he once lent his personal car to a client in need and emphasizes how his blue-collar upbringing and family experiences motivate him to serve those who are often neglected by the system. In his Closing Argument, Jason highlights the reality of how corporations and insurers devalue human lives and explains his commitment to exposing their negligence in court.
Key Takeaways:
- Fighting for the Underserved: Jason’s mission is to represent those overlooked or mistreated by big business and insurance companies.
- Career Shift to Personal Injury Law: His passion for advocacy and competition led him away from tax law into personal injury, where he could make a real impact.
- Client Dedication: Jason goes above and beyond for clients, including lending his car to one in need.
- Maintaining Personal Connections: Despite managing a growing firm, Jason ensures every client receives direct attention and support.
- Exposing Corporate Negligence: In his closing argument, Jason stresses his commitment to holding corporations accountable for prioritizing profits over people.
