JASON SHEASBY
Partner
Irell & Manella LLP
Jason Sheasby, a partner with Irell & Manella, continues to demonstrate why he is one of the nation’s leading litigators. Recently, in a span of just a little over a year-and-a-half, he pulled off a remarkable feat, taking seven highly complex, high-stakes cases to trial and winning each, resulting in more than a billion dollars in verdicts, a permanent injunction, and two key defense victories.
As co-lead counsel for G+ Communications, Sheasby in January 2024 persuaded a jury to find Samsung infringed patents essential to the 5G standard originally created by ZTE, a Chinese telecommunications company. In April, he secured $142 million in patent damages, the full amount requested, in a retrial of the damages portion of the case.
