Glenn Agre Bergman & Fuentes, a trial law firm, has expanded its San Francisco team with the addition of David Callaway, a former partner at Goodwin Procter. With the inclusion of Callaway, the law firm now has 34 lawyers and staff members. Glenn Agre Bergman & Fuentes was founded in 2021 by seven partners who left Kasowitz Benson Torres, a New York-based law firm known for its work with former US President Donald Trump and its high-stakes commercial caseload.

Before joining Goodwin Procter in 2019, Callaway worked at Baker McKenzie as a partner and as a federal prosecutor with the US attorney’s office in the Northern District of California from 1998 to 2016. Callaway stated that working in a giant law firm, such as Goodwin Procter with nearly 2,000 lawyers or Baker McKenzie with close to 5,000, “just didn’t work for me.” He added that Glenn Agre offered him more flexibility and fewer conflicts.

Callaway explained that if a potential client faces an insider-trading allegation, “it’s not helpful if the company whose shares that person traded is represented by your law firm.” Glenn Agre Bergman & Fuentes initially sublet space from US law firm Boies Schiller Flexner in New York and San Francisco before getting its own offices, which are now quickly filling up, according to managing partner Andrew Glenn.

We look forward to that case being resolved in the near future.”
