Jeremy R. Kasha is Counsel at Seeger Weiss, where he brings more than two decades of experience in antitrust enforcement and complex litigation involving some of the nation’s most closely watched matters of competition law. A seasoned litigator, Jeremy has built a career at the intersection of public service and cutting-edge antitrust investigations and litigation, with deep expertise in both federal and state enforcement.
Before joining the firm, Jeremy served as an Assistant Attorney General in the Office of the New York Attorney General’s Antitrust Bureau for nearly 20 years where he was recognized five times with the Attorney General’s Louis J. Lefkowitz Award for Superior Service. In that role, Jeremy was designated lead trial counsel for New York on two major matters, U.S. v. Live Nation Entertainment & Ticketmaster and New York v. CVS, and he played significant roles in other high-profile cases, including the New York v. T-Mobile/Sprint merger litigation, FTC v. Vyera litigation involving “PharmaBro” Martin Shkreli, and New York v. Actavis, which led to a groundbreaking injunction against anticompetitive “product hopping” that was upheld on appeal.
While an Assistant Attorney General, Jeremy worked closely with attorneys general across the country as well as with the Federal Trade Commission and the Department of Justice, routinely representing New York in complex litigation, single-state and multistate investigations, and high-profile enforcement actions in federal and state courts. He also worked with and attended competition law hearings at the European Commission in Brussels.
Prior to his government service, Jeremy practiced at Proskauer Rose; Solomon, Zauderer, Ellenhorn, Frischer & Sharp and Shearman & Sterling in New York, where he handled antitrust, patent, and commercial litigation matters in both federal and state court. He began his legal career as a federal law clerk for Chief Judge Peter C. Dorsey of the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut.
Jeremy has authored articles and policy letters on antitrust law, including a policy letter on competition law signed by a dozen state attorneys general. He is also named on an amicus brief before the U.S. Supreme Court on the issue of two-sided markets. He was a two-time Harlan Fiske Stone Scholar at Columbia Law School, where he concurrently earned his J.D. and a Certificate in International and Comparative Law from the Parker School of Foreign and Comparative Law. He is trilingual in English, French, and Spanish.
