Jesse Fruchter

Senior Counsel

Overview

Jesse Fruchter serves as Senior Counsel in Singleton Schreiber's Spokane, Washington office, where he focuses on Whistleblower & False Claims Act matters, Class Actions, Environmental Litigation, Consumer Protection Law, and Wildfire Litigation. He brings years of experience enforcing the law on behalf of plaintiffs against companies throughout the United States, combining legal acumen with a distinctive scientific background that enriches his approach to complex environmental and consumer protection cases. 

Since entering the legal profession, Jesse has been recognized as a Wisconsin Super Lawyers Rising Star for five consecutive years for his work in complex plaintiff-side securities, antitrust, and consumer protection class actions. Before joining Singleton Schreiber, he practiced and argued in state and federal courts across the country, including the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit and the Delaware Court of Chancery. He has been appointed class counsel in numerous cases and has helped investors and consumers throughout the country recover millions of dollars from companies that violated the law. 

Jesse earned his Juris Doctor from the University of Wisconsin Law School, where he received the Abner Brodie Award for Outstanding Achievement in Legal Study and Practical Application of the Law, and was recognized in the Terence T. Evans Humor and Creativity in Law Competition by the Eastern District of Wisconsin Bar Association.  

Before pursuing his legal career, Jesse developed substantial expertise in environmental science and ecology. He earned a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Biology from the State University of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry, followed by several years working with the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection. He later obtained a Master of Science in Plant Biology from Southern Illinois University, where his thesis research investigated the ecological impacts of large-scale hurricanes and fires on coastal areas, experience that now informs his wildfire litigation practice in meaningful ways. 

He is admitted to practice in Wisconsin, the United States District Courts for the Western and Eastern Districts of Wisconsin, the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, and the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas.  

Outside of his legal practice, Jesse spends as much of his free time as he can outdoors with his wife and their son, two dogs, and three chickens (their cat stays indoors).
