Brent A. Bouma is a partner in the Newark office of Lewis Brisbois and a member of the General Liability and Labor & Employment Practices. Brent is an experienced litigator and employment attorney who focuses his practice on the representation of employers, corporations, and individuals in actions alleging employment discrimination, harassment, and retaliation as well as defending general and product liability claims. He has experience representing clients throughout all aspects of litigation in federal and state courts, including pre-suit negotiations, arbitrations, mediations, and appeals.

Brent's approach to litigation is two-fold: he focuses on aggressive and creative representation to minimize liability exposure while simultaneously keeping an eye towards reducing client exposure to protracted court proceedings, when possible.

Prior to joining Lewis Brisbois, Brent was an associate in a regional New Jersey law firm where he concentrated his practice on defending clients in general liability and, previously, employment matters.

Brent attended the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law and Wake Forest University.
