Jason S. Long is a Partner in Dinsmore & Shohl's Litigation Department practicing out of the firm's Morgantown office. Jason's practice concentrates on two areas of law that are quite diverse from each other. One area of Jason’s practice focuses on enforcing the collection rights and security interests of creditors. In this area of the law, he also has experience in defending creditors and debt collection entities in litigation where claims have been asserted against such entities for alleged violations of the West Virginia Consumer Credit and Protect Act (“WVCCPA”) and/or the Federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Also, in this practice area he has extensive experience in representing factoring companies in the purchase of structured settlements in statutory petition proceedings in state court, again brought under the WVCCPA.
The second area of Jason’s practice originates from his pre-lawyer days as an educator as well as growing up as the son of a county school superintendent, and focuses on representation of numerous county board of educations in the firm’s Educational Law Practice Group, providing a wide range of services, including, but not limited to, guidance on personnel matters (both service and professional personnel), student and employee discipline matters and due process hearings. He often provides in-service training to school personnel on issues such as student rights, student discipline, employee discipline and updates on the ever changing educational laws.
