Born and raised in Montana, Jason Doucette found his passion for justice early in life. Spending time on his family’s ranch, he learned from his grandmother that you can be both loving and tough. Motivated by a desire to correct injustices, Jason heeded Clarence Darrow's timeless wisdom that “As long as the world shall last there will be wrongs, and if no man objected and no man rebelled, those wrongs would last forever.” All of this led Jason to embark on a legal career.
As a trial lawyer, Jason places his faith in the American jury system, trusting the community to champion justice over the interests of insurance companies, corporations, and government officials. Notable among his accomplishments are substantial jury verdicts, including a $46,800,000 verdict for chronic pain syndrome, "mild" traumatic brain injury, and cardiomyopathy. This, and several other notable outcomes underscore Jason's commitment to securing justice for those who have suffered.
