About Jason Helsel

Jason A. Helsel is a trial attorney at Fowler Helsel Vogt with a focus on representing victims of serious injuries and wrongful death caused by the negligence of others. In an era when most lawyers do not try cases, Jason has prevailed in the courtroom repeatedly. He uses mock juries (focus groups) to refine trial theories and presentation for every case headed to trial. His approach centers on telling the human story behind each case rather than relying primarily on expert witnesses, which he believes keeps costs down and is more persuasive to juries.

Jason joined the firm as Partner in 2010, having previously worked at Seltzer Caplan McMahon Vitek (2001-2006) and Lang Richert and Patch (2008-2010). He has been selected to the Super Lawyers list from 2015 through 2021 and was named to the Northern California Rising Stars list from 2010 to 2014. He is also a graduate of the Gerry Spence Trial Lawyers College and has received multiple Fresno County Verdict of the Month honors.
