Weltman, Weinberg & Reis Co., LPA (Weltman), a creditors’ rights firm now in its 85th year of client service, welcomes Attorney Jason K. Wright back to its Brooklyn Heights, Ohio office after his return from a 12-month-long mobilization as a Major in the United States Army at Fort Hood, located in Killeen, Texas. Jason will focus his practice on achieving resolution on bankruptcy matters for the firm’s clients.

“We are thrilled to add Jason’s considerable litigation experience to our bankruptcy team, and I am confident that his addition will further enhance the high level of legal service our clients have come to expect from Weltman,” said Scott Fink, Managing Partner of the firm’s Bankruptcy Group.

Prior to that time, he spent several years working for a private practice in Central Ohio where he specialized in civil litigation and torts. Jason previously served in Iraq and Afghanistan: first, as an Administrative Law Attorney with the Multi-National Corps – Iraq Headquarters, at Camp Victory, Iraq, from February 2005 until February 2006; and later as a Contract and Fiscal Law Attorney with the 645th Regional Support Group at Kandahar Airfield, from April 2011 until April 2012. Along with other awards for his service, Jason is a recipient of the Bronze Star Medal, Joint Service Commendation Medal, and the Army Commendation Medal.

Jason earned his B.A. from Ohio University in 1992, and his J.D., Order of the Curia, from Capital University Law School in 2000. Licensed in the State of Ohio, Jason is admitted to practice before the U.S. District Court for the Northern & Southern Districts of Ohio and for the Eastern District of Wisconsin.
