I am Jasmine "Jas" Jordan, and I believe my unique blend of legal experience, academic achievements, and commitment to justice makes me an ideal candidate for recognition as a Super Lawyer by Thomson Reuters.
I graduated summa cum laude from both The University of Alabama and Thurgood Marshall School of Law, followed by earning an LLM in Intellectual Property from the University of Houston Law Center. My journey from student attorney to founding partner at The Law Office of Jas Jordan, PLLC reflects my dedication to legal excellence. In my practice, I represent personal injury clients, providing comprehensive legal counsel and advocating vigorously on their behalf, whether in hearings, negotiations, or trial.
In addition to running my own firm, I serve as a Judge Advocate in the Texas Army National Guard, offering legal guidance on military operations, ethics, and labor law, while representing service members in court-martial proceedings. This role has enhanced my leadership and decision-making capabilities, reinforcing my commitment to integrity and service.
My professional journey also includes diverse litigation roles, such as volunteering with the NAACP. These experiences have honed my trial and negotiation skills, while my deep commitment to community service is evident in my volunteer work with local organizations like The Beacon, Meals on Wheels, and the Houston Food Bank.
Recognized as one of the Top 40 Under 40 by the National Black Lawyers, I strive to lead with excellence and empathy. I am confident that my dedication to the legal profession, my community, and those I serve aligns with the values of Super Lawyers, making me an excellent candidate for this distinction.

White Papers
- Hundreds of convictions in the United States today arise from honest mistakes. However, thousands more are the result of government attorneys engaging in professional misconduct. Throughout society, there is an increasing trend of attorneys losing sight of the ethical expectations and duties inherent in the legal profession. While many attorneys begin their careers with the noble goal of seeking justice and serving the public, over time, these goals are often compromised. The desire to secure victories, maintain professional relationships, or advance personal interests gradually overshadows the commitment to justice. This unconscious shift in priorities, fueled by industry norms and employer policies, leads to a systemic breakdown where attorneys no longer fulfill their obligations under the law. Instead, they wield their authority to protect their own interests, contributing to a culture of corruption and political maneuvering. Left unchecked, such behavior erodes public trust and undermines the fundamental principles of fairness and justice. This white paper will examine several key areas. First, it will provide a foundation by discussing the ethical rules and policies designed to guide attorneys. Next, it will explore the motivations behind why government attorneys engage in misconduct, including factors such as reputation, personal wealth, and moral character. Finally, the paper will propose potential policy reforms aimed at mitigating the risk of such unethical behavior. The findings in this white paper are intended to provoke thought and encourage further research into the disturbing trend of government misconduct. While some of the examples presented are fictionalized to highlight key issues, the underlying concerns are all too real and demand attention if the legal profession is to remain a pillar of justice., Government Attorney Misconduct, Legal, 2018
