Patent, Trademark, Copyright Lawsuits

If you own intellectual property such as a patent, copyright, or trademark, you have important property rights that need to be protected. If you feel that someone is infringing on or violating your patent, copyright, or trademark, contact us. We have experience in handling these types of intellectual property issues. The firm also represents those accused of violating patents, copyrights or trademarks owned by others. The Federal District Court for the Eastern District of Texas has become a favorite place for owners of patents to sue persons they think are infringing on or violating their patent. Mr. Rouse is licensed in the Federal District Court for the Eastern District of Texas and has been involved in patent infringement issues in that court.

First Amendment Rights

Both the United States and Colorado Constitutions guarantee your right to free speech, religious liberty, freedom of assembly and freedom of the press. If you feel your constitutional rights are being violated, contact the Rouse Law Office. We have handled many of these types of cases. Cases we have handled include violations of the free speech rights of persons on public sidewalks and in public schools and colleges. School clubs, whether or not religious in nature, have a right to equal access in the use of public school facilities. We have handled these types of cases when school officials violate the law. Mr. Rouse has had extensive training from the Alliance Defense Fund and currently represents several churches.
