Hi, I'm Jack Mattson.

Associate Attorney

I am an employment law and business litigation attorney focused on developing strategic, practical, and creative solutions to complex legal disputes. I represent employers of all sizes in employment litigation and business disputes, drawing on my experience representing both plaintiffs and defendants. Having represented clients on both sides of lawsuits, I bring a unique and well-rounded perspective to each matter I handle.

My employment law experience encompasses a broad range of matters, including discrimination claims, Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) disputes, Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) claims, Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) proceedings, wrongful termination, and wage disputes. In addition to litigation, I advise small businesses on proactive employment and business matters, including preparing foundational business documents, drafting employment agreements and employee handbooks, and providing guidance on regulatory compliance and employment-related risk management. My approach emphasizes practical advice, preventative strategies, and solutions that align with my clients’ business goals.

Born and raised in Minnesota, I attended Minnesota State University, where I earned my undergraduate degree in Corporate Finance while competing as a four-year scholarship baseball athlete. I subsequently earned a Master’s degree in Finance from the University of Colorado Boulder before pursuing my legal education at Stetson University College of Law, where I focused on business law.

Following law school, I began my legal career at one of Florida’s largest defense firms, concentrating on labor and employment litigation. I later expanded my practice to represent plaintiffs in employment disputes and advise small businesses in business litigation and employment-related matters.

I am committed to providing thoughtful counsel, effective advocacy, and business-minded legal solutions that help my clients navigate complex disputes, manage legal risks, and protect their interests.
