Recognized in Best Lawyers since 2015 
I have devoted nearly my entire professional career to government contracts. After graduating from the United States Air Force Academy and SMU Dedman School of Law, I served as a government contracts lawyer in the Air Force, acting as procurement counsel, legal advisor to Inspector General investigations involving procurement matters, and a member of the Air Force Contract Litigation Team. Those assignments allowed me to see federal contracting from the perspectives of the contracting officer, program office, investigator, and trial lawyer.
In 1997, I resigned my commission and entered private practice, focusing exclusively on government contracts. Since then, I have represented contractors in disputes before the United States Court of Federal Claims, boards of contract appeals, federal district courts, and federal courts of appeals. My practice has included federal construction disputes, terminations, suspension and debarment matters, audits and investigations, and other controversies unique to the federal procurement system.
In 2013, after more than fifteen years in private practice, including service as a partner at national law firms, I founded Jackson Holcomb LLP.
I am a trial lawyer, and I genuinely enjoy trying cases when trial is necessary. But most disputes can—and should—be resolved without trial.
