Jump to:

Brian A. Aslin is of counsel in the Austin, Texas, office of Jackson Lewis P.C. Emphasizing practicality and credibility, Brian partners with clients to successfully resolve labor, employment, and trade secrets disputes, as well as achieve long-term business objectives.

Known as a persuasive and committed advocate, Brian is unafraid to go toe-to-toe with an adversary, quarterbacking clients’ matters with confidence. Brian defends employers in discrimination, retaliation, and harassment cases under state and federal law and before administrative agencies. Brian also represents organizations in traditional labor matters, including union organizing campaigns, representation case hearings, collective bargaining, arbitrations, and unfair labor practice charges before the NLRB. Additionally, Brian has experience representing clients in unfair competition and trade secret disputes involving restrictive covenants, such as non-compete and non-solicitation agreements.

Brian values responsiveness and takes time to learn the ins and outs of a client’s organization to provide the most effective counsel and representation. Specifically, Brian has experience representing and advising technology and healthcare companies and leverages his knowledge and insight to create tailored legal strategies to minimize risk in those sectors. Brian is also a frequent educator and speaker on labor and employment law issues, staying up to date on the latest trends in the evolving landscape.

Previously, Brian served as an Assistant Attorney General for the State of Texas, where his practice focused on high-impact employment litigation. At the Office of the Attorney General, he obtained successful results for clients at jury trial, appellate oral argument, and in hearings on emergency temporary restraining orders, temporary injunctions, and dispositive motions—all as attorney-in-charge. A former prosecutor, Brian began his career as an Assistant District Attorney, where he achieved an undefeated first-chair jury trial record and served as a Court Chief.

A community-driven leader, Brian serves on the board of directors for several Austin non-profit organizations and on the Executive Committee of the Baylor Law Alumni Association.
