About Jason Putnam Gordon
I am a partner in the San Francisco office of K&L Gates LLP, which is a fully integrated, global law firm. My practice focuses on advising emerging growth companies and their investors on corporate and securities law and advising them in business transactions. Having previously started my own law firm, I am passionate about working with entrepreneurs, companies, and senior executives, as well as with venture investors, to achieve their growth goals. I do this by serving as outside corporate counsel to venture-backed companies and as a counsel to senior executives, entrepreneurs, and investors. First, I work to understand each client's business, vision, and priorities. That understanding allows me to create strategies to solve legal problems, freeing the client to focus on its business goals. I represent businesses ranging from well-funded growth companies to mid-sized privately held companies, as well as investors. My background includes working at a large Silicon Valley law firm, founding my own firm, and completing a U.S. District Court clerkship. The knowledge and skills I developed through these experiences make me a better transactional attorney, mindful of how today's business decisions can manifest in the future. As such, the advice I provide my clients allows them to take informed, calculated risks. As a legal community leader, I have served as the Chair of the Barristers Solo & Small Firm Section for the Bar Association of San Francisco from 2013 through 2015. On a personal level, I am passionate about skydiving. This passion, coupled with an expert-level skydiving license, has taken me all over the United States and internationally.
