PROFESSIONAL

My practice is principally a litigation practice with a focus on tort litigation along with substantial involvement in commercial litigation, real estate litigation and domestic relations litigation. Upon being admitted to the practice of law in 1976 I worked for two years with Hartford Insurance Company as their in-house defense counsel representing their insureds in personal injury litigation. Thereafter, I worked with the firm of Doherty, Sheridan and Grimaldi in Fairfax, Virginia concentrating on insurance defense litigation for approximately seven years until I formed my current law firm in April of 1985.

Since being admitted to the practice of law in Virginia I have tried over 300 jury cases to conclusion and handled thousands of other cases of every conceivable type.

For the last 25 years I have served as a Commissioner in Chancery in the Fairfax Circuit Court hearing both contested and uncontested domestic cases

I am admitted to practice not only in the State of Virginia but in Maryland and the District of Columbia.

I have authored four different books:

(1) The Virginia Torts Case Finder which is a 900 page compendium of Virginia tort cases.

(2) Objections: Interrogatories, Depositions and Trial is a publication co-authored with Christine Reilly and published by Virginia CLE Publications. This book has been the subject of several CLE seminars that I have given.

(3) Law 101 is published by Sphinx Publishing and is essentially law for the layperson.

(4) The Virginia Domestic Relations Case Finder, like the case finder referenced above, is published by Lexis Nexis. This book is a 450 page compendium of Virginia Domestic cases.

A listing of articles that I have authored can be found at my website, www.BrienRocheLaw.com along with a listing of reported cases and verdicts and settlements.
