Roman Diveev

Associate

    Roman is an associate in the Casualty Department where he represents clients in matters involving premises liability, automobile liability, and general liability, drawing on his broad litigation background to evaluate risk, develop defense strategies, and guide clients through all phases of claims and litigation. Prior to joining Marshall Dennehey, he practiced with several prominent law firms in Central Florida, handling personal injury, workers’ compensation, immigration, and general civil litigation.

    Roman began his career as a plaintiff’s attorney, where he achieved numerous successes and secured multiple six  and seven-figure settlements for his clients. After nearly a decade on the plaintiff’s side, he transitioned to defense work and now uses that insight to represent trucking entities, transportation carriers, retail establishments, and other commercial clients. His keen attention to detail and practical understanding of both sides of litigation strengthen his ability to deliver precise, effective representation. Roman’s keen eye for details is crucial in his quest to properly and successfully defend his clients.
