Jason Rubin offers a distinctive perspective on commercial real estate law: he knows how deals are born, not just how they close. Before practicing law, Jason worked as a commercial real estate broker, giving him an insider's understanding of what it truly takes to see a transaction from inception to closing. The result is an attorney who negotiates with the instincts of a dealmaker and the precision of a seasoned lawyer — one who understands not only what the contract says, but what the deal requires.
That background shapes every client relationship. As Co-Chair of Schenck Price's Commercial Real Estate Practice Group, Jason brings the same hands-on counsel to institutional owners managing significant regional portfolios as he does to local small business owners negotiating their first lease — because understanding the business goal behind the transaction is what allows him to meet every client where they are. That range extends across all major asset classes, including industrial, healthcare, multi-family, office, and retail properties, spanning acquisitions, dispositions, financing, leasing, and development.
That same commitment extends to how Jason manages the complexities that arise in any transaction. Real estate transactions rarely happen in a vacuum. When environmental, tax, zoning, or construction complications threaten a matter, Jason serves as his clients' single point of contact, seamlessly mobilizing Schenck Price's deep bench of specialists to clear obstacles before they derail the process. Beyond internal coordination, Jason draws on an extensive external network of lenders, mortgage brokers, and industry professionals, ensuring that clients arrive at the closing prepared, protected, and confident.
Clients turn to Jason because the gap between a good lawyer and the right lawyer is perspective. He knows what it takes to get a deal done, what can quietly unravel one, and how to protect a client's investment while keeping the transaction moving forward. For his clients, that difference is everything.
