​Jason I. Poblete

​Jason I. Poblete

Jason I. Poblete practices international and national security law at Poblete Tamargo LLP in Alexandria, Virginia. He is one of the co-founders of the Global Liberty Alliance where he serves as its Chief Counsel and Policy Advisor. A long-time defender of fundamental rights, Mr. Poblete was involved in the successful release of two Americans from Iran and is representing Americans unlawfully detained in other nations.

On December 9, 2019, the James W. Foley Foundation announced that Jason would receive the 2020 Hostage Freedom Award for his work to help free several Americans unlawfully detained in Iran and Venezuela. Prior to starting Poblete Tamargo LLP in 2010, Poblete practiced law at Reed Smith, served as a senior staff member in the U.S. Congress, and has provided expert testimony on a range of legal and foreign policy matters, including on sovereignty and self-determination, export controls and economic sanctions, before the United Nations, the U.S. Congress, and foreign courts.

In 2017 Jason co-founded a legal defense fund, the Global Liberty Alliance, to empower and train lawyers, reporters, and civil society leaders who work in nations struggling with rule of law issues.  Many lawyers and other civil society leaders in emerging democracies or totalitarian states look for counterparts in the U.S. for guidance and support. GLA has quickly evolved into an advocacy organization helping tackle complicated legal and policy issues before they become problems in America. GLA is committed to strengthening fundamental rights, free enterprise, and rule of law.

Born and raised in South Florida, Jason is a first-generation American whose family fled Communist Cuba during the Cold War. In addition to a successful law practice and GLA, Jason is an advisor to the International Catholic Jurist Forum and a member of the Order of Malta.  Jason and his wife of over 25 years, Dr. Yleem Poblete reside in Arlington, Virginia.
