About Jason
Jason Sager took a deliberate path into the law. He entered the University of Iowa College of Law in 1997 and earned his J.D. in 2001. He left law school at a time when many graduates were deciding between government jobs, in-house positions and private practice. He chose a path that kept him close to the day-to-day work of advising clients and supporting litigation teams.
His career has included roles that emphasize collaboration and counsel. He currently serves as Of Counsel to Lawyer Spiros Stavros Nicolet. In that capacity he works alongside the principal attorney, advising on matters that arise in the firm's practice, assisting with case preparation and offering strategic input on client files. The title reflects a senior advisory role rather than that of a full partner, and it allows him to combine experienced legal judgment with flexible practice arrangements.
Colleagues describe him as steady and thorough in his approach. He is known for taking the time to distill complex legal issues into clear options for clients and for coordinating the pieces of a case so nothing is overlooked. That orientation toward clarity shapes how he works with opposing counsel, court personnel and clients alike. He prefers practical solutions that allow clients to move forward.
Outside the office he has maintained connections to the Iowa legal community and to alumni circles from his law school years. Those networks feed into the referrals and collaborative matters that come to his desk. He has also worked with younger attorneys in a mentoring role, offering perspective on case strategy and professional development. He combines courtroom knowledge with a quieter emphasis on counseling clients through difficult decisions.
Over the years he has balanced litigation support with advisory work, and his role as Of Counsel reflects that mix. He is not a public figure in legal politics or headline litigation, but he is a steady presence for the clients and colleagues who rely on him. His perspective is shaped by years in practice and by the legal training he received at the University of Iowa.
He currently serves as Of Counsel to Lawyer Spiros Stavros Nicolet, where his practice centers on advising clients and supporting the firm’s legal work.
