Services:
The Law Office of Jason E. Ambers (LOJA) combines exceptional client service with deep subject-matter expertise to help individuals and companies navigate regulatory and enforcement challenges under the blue sky laws.
I work directly with businesses, law firms, solo attorneys, in-house counsel, compliance professionals, and other financial professionals and offer the following types of services:
Regulatory Strategy, Securities Compliance, and Risk Management:
Advising clients how to structure a securities offering to comply with the the exemptions or registration requirements under the blue sky laws. Helping clients meet their legal and regulatory obligations under the state securities laws. Helping clients to proactively identify and mitigate potential legal and regulatory risks.
Enforcement Defense:
Defending clients in securities investigations, enforcement actions, and litigation brought by state regulators or private parties.
Consulting and Testifying Expert Services:
Serving as a testifying and consulting expert in civil, criminal, or administrative matters.
Special Situations & Counsel to the Profession:
Assisting law firms, solo attorneys, in-house counsel, and compliance professionals in unconventional or high-stakes matters involving state securities law. These engagements are often sensitive, fast-moving, or strategically complex—and benefit from a regulator-informed second opinion or confidential collaboration.
My guidance is grounded not only in the knowledge of the specific laws that govern transactions in securities, but also in having a nuanced understanding — developed over decades as a regulator, investment banker, and corporate lawyer — of how those laws interact with each other, how they are interpreted by regulators and courts, and what actually drives regulatory decisions and outcomes. This practical, insider-informed perspective allows me to offer strategic, actionable advice that anticipates regulatory concerns and helps avoid or mitigate compliance risks.
While I do not serve as SEC or litigation counsel, I do work effectively and collaboratively alongside securities litigators and SEC counsel on blue sky securities offering compliance, enforcement defense, and regulatory strategy—especially on complex matters and during moments of regulatory scrutiny or crisis where fast, strategic coordination is critical.
