Biography
Jed serves as Chair of Glenn Agre’s Litigation Department and is a trusted advisor in high-stakes commercial disputes. He represents corporations, investment funds, founders, and senior executives in complex matters involving sophisticated financial transactions, partnership and joint venture conflicts, real estate and zoning disputes, and cases presenting overlapping contract, tort, and fiduciary duty claims.

Clients frequently call Jed when the stakes are existentially and reputationally significant, and the path forward is unclear. He is known for developing creative strategies that can reshape the trajectory of a case and position clients for leverage. His matters routinely involve multi-forum litigation and arbitration demanding coordinated, long-term strategy from pre-suit risk assessment through trial and appeal.

Jed’s clients also value his ability to translate complicated exposure into clear, proportionate guidance. In contentious and emotionally charged situations, he brings steadiness and perspective, helping decision-makers separate real risk from noise and pursue outcomes that others have written off.

Before co-founding Glenn Agre Bergman & Fuentes, Jed was a partner at Kasowitz Benson Torres LLP and practiced at Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz.
