About

DENNIS ORR, a nationally recognized trial lawyer, has created a drama for broadcast here in the United States and Europe. Set in 2003, The Laws of Right and Wrong centers upon the trial in New York City of a Guantanamo detainee wrongfully accused of murdering a United States Air Force colonel in Pakistan.  Dennis has written a historical novel entitled, Pocantico, an American Downton Abbey that follows the relationship of the Rockefeller family with the workers at the Rockefeller's estate in Pocantico, New York against the backdrop of John D. Rockefeller’s devious manipulations during the early years of the oil industry.  Dennis has also written: Jewel of the Pacific, about a jewel thief terrorizing the luxury island of Maui, and The Background Check, about a routine background check on a presidential nominee that spirals into a life-and-death struggle to suppress disclosure of the nominee’s darkest secrets.

​

Throughout his legal career, Dennis has always been a writer, having published two articles as a law student and numerous articles on pressing legal issues of the day as a practicing lawyer.  He's also been a television aficionado all his life, a walking TV Guide who could recite each evening's network schedules and rate the shows.  Only Rod Serling spent more time in "The Twilight Zone" and only "Monk" solved more crimes.
