About Jason Edward
Jason Edward Spain came to law after a first career shaped by numbers and structures. He earned a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering from North Carolina State University in 2006 and later turned to the law, earning his J.D. from DePaul College of Law in 2013. The combination of an engineering degree and a law degree informs how he approaches problems: methodically and with attention to detail.
His legal career in North Carolina began after law school. He has been a member of the North Carolina Bar Association since 2013. By 2018 he joined Bagwell Holt Smith P.A. as a lawyer. At the firm he has handled matters that require careful legal analysis and an ability to parse technical information.
Spain’s engineering background appears often in the way he frames a case. He looks for the factual scaffolding beneath legal claims. That perspective can be useful in disputes that hinge on construction questions, project timelines, or technical specifications. He does not rely on jargon. He explains complex points in plain language so judges, juries and clients can follow the reasoning.
Colleagues describe him as steady in litigation settings. He prepares evidence and witness testimony with an eye toward how technical detail will play in court. He also spends time on the drafting side, crafting pleadings and motions that address both legal doctrine and the underlying facts. His cases reflect an interest in work that sits at the intersection of law and engineering, though he has also handled matters that fall outside that overlap.
Outside of the office he maintains professional ties through the state bar association. That membership keeps him connected to continuing legal education and developments in North Carolina law. It also places him in a network of practitioners across specialties who deal with state and local regulations.
Today he practices law at Bagwell Holt Smith P.A. in North Carolina, where he handles cases that often involve technical or engineering issues.
