Jared Wessel is a pioneer in handling critical matters involving international trade issues, trade remedies (AD/CVD), public international law, and the intersection of trade and labor rights.
Jared has represented clients before U.S. federal agencies that regulate international trade matters, including the Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR), the U.S. Department of Commerce, and the U.S. International Trade Commission. As a lawyer in trade law matters under U.S. and international law, Jared helps clients in antidumping and countervailing duty proceedings and other proceedings under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974 and Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962. Jared has participated in dispute settlement before the World Trade Organization (WTO) and North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). He also advises clients regarding international economic policy matters, such as the renegotiation of NAFTA, the intersection of international economic and environmental law, and the facility-specific rapid response labor mechanism under the USMCA.
From 2011 to 2015, Jared served in the General Counsel's office of the USTR. During that time, he personally argued two cases in front of the WTO Appellate Body, winning both. Jared also served as one of the USTR's chief negotiators for market access issues with China, as well as the Minamata Convention on Mercury. More generally, Jared provided legal and policy guidance on a range of issues, including environment, labor, energy, sanctions, trade secrets, and trade remedies.
Previously, Jared was a lawyer at a major international law firm in Washington. He also served as an adviser to the Permanent Mission to the United Nations, Republic of Palau, in New York City, where he handled legal and national security matters. He also clerked for the Honorable Jane R. Roth of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit.
