As counsel in the Corporate Department and member of the Mergers & Acquisitions Group, Jason Tyler focuses his practice on transactional and corporate governance-related issues, including public and private company mergers and acquisitions, asset sales and other significant transactions, financings, takeover defenses and advance preparedness measures, contests for corporate control and stockholder activism, indemnification and director liability and fiduciary duties. Jason has experience advising boards of directors, special committees, investors and corporate clients in a broad range of matters in the context of both specific M&A transactions and ongoing, non-transactional bases.

Jason regularly writes on emerging issues in Delaware corporate law, including two pieces co-authored with retired Vice Chancellor Donald F. Parsons, Jr. of the Delaware Court of Chancery, a chapter in Research Handbook on Mergers and Acquisitions entitled Activist stockholders, corporate governance challenges, and Delaware law and an article in the Washington & Lee Law Review entitled Docket Dividends: Growth in Shareholder Litigation Leads to Refinements in Chancery Procedures. Appointed in 2015 by the Delaware Supreme Court, Jason also currently serves as an associate member of the court’s Board of Bar Examiners.
