About Denis

Denis Riva's practice focuses on defending Fortune 100 and 500 companies in areas such as product liability, premises liability, and commercial litigation on both statewide and national levels.  His experience also includes pattern litigation and mass document discovery. 

 

Prior to joining Bowman and Brooke, Denis appeared in state and federal courts representing corporate clients in all aspects of product liability litigation.  Before his legal career began, Denis received an MFA in Acting from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, was a member of Actors' Equity Association, and worked as a professional actor.  Denis has transferred the skills he learned on stage to the courtroom, and uses these tools to effectively communicate his client's position.  When not at the office, Denis and his partner, Charlie, can be found working in their yard with their animals looking on.
