Jason Sodd
Jason Sodd’s legal practice has always centered on eminent domain litigation, dedicating his career to advocating for property owners. With a strong focus on litigation, Jason brings a determined and thorough approach to each case, ensuring landowners’ rights are vigorously defended when their property is targeted for condemnation.
He is committed to guiding clients through the often-intimidating condemnation process, translating complex legal issues into clear, understandable terms, and fighting to secure the fair compensation they deserve. His work primarily serves Texas landowners, addressing the unique challenges they face.
Focus on Eminent Domain & Condemnation
Jason dedicates a significant portion of his practice to leading many of Dawson & Sodd’s power line and pipeline condemnation cases, navigating the specific easement terms and valuation complexities these matters present. He has a deep understanding of how high-voltage transmission lines, gas pipelines, and other utility infrastructure can impact property values and landowners’ ongoing use of their land.
Beyond power line and pipeline cases, Jason has played integral roles in some of the firm’s most significant successes since joining, including a complex East Texas case involving the taking of land beneath an existing gas processing plant and an inverse condemnation matter involving flooding caused by a new lake. He was also a key legal figure in addressing eminent domain issues related to the proposed Texas High-Speed Rail project.
His litigation background means he is prepared to take cases through the entire legal process, from initial negotiations to hearings and, if necessary, to trial to protect his clients’ interests.
