Jason M. Jabar, founder of Jabar LaLiberty, LLC, in Waterville, Maine, devotes his practice to personal injury and wrongful death litigation, with particular depth in motor vehicle accidents, trucking accidents, medical malpractice and premises liability. From his Waterville office, he serves clients across the greater Portland metropolitan area and throughout the state, standing beside families at some of the most difficult moments of their lives.
Mr. Jabar represents individuals who have suffered both economic and noneconomic losses because of another party's negligence. His casework spans collisions involving trucks, motorcycles and passenger vehicles, as well as dog bites, defective products, construction site and workplace accidents and elder abuse. Whether in the courtroom or at the negotiating table, he has secured significant compensation for his clients through jury awards and carefully negotiated settlements. He also brings experience in criminal defense and long-term disability insurance matters.
Admitted to practice before all Maine state courts, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maine and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 1st Circuit, Mr. Jabar carries his advocacy to every level of the judicial system. His record has earned him a "Superb" rating on Avvo and a place on the National Trial Lawyers' Top 40 Under 40, a distinction that reflects the esteem of his colleagues. He also serves on the board of governors of the Maine Trial Lawyers Association.
Mr. Jabar’s path to the profession began at Colby College, where he majored in American studies, played varsity football and basketball and earned his Bachelor of Arts in 1996. He remained in Maine for his legal education, receiving his Juris Doctor from the University of Maine School of Law in 2000.
For Mr. Jabar, the work is rooted in a simple conviction: that those harmed by the carelessness of others deserve a determined, skilled voice working on their behalf. Through Jabar LaLiberty, LLC, he continues to provide exactly that to Maine families.
