Katherine Roush

Associate

At Reilly Pozner LLP, we are creative team players - on both offense and defense. We proudly represent both plaintiffs and defendants in complex civil and criminal litigation in courts around the country. Katherine Roush is a litigation associate with the firm.

Katie focuses her practice on civil and commercial litigation. During law school, she interned for the Hon. Nancy E. Rice of the Colorado Supreme Court and the Hon. Larry J. Naves in the Second Judicial District of Colorado. In these positions, she gained valuable research and writing experience as well as exposure to diverse areas of civil and criminal law.

Katie holds her law degree from the University of Denver Sturm College of Law, where she was a general editor and published author on the Denver University Law Review, and a student attorney in the Student Law Office Civil Litigation Clinic. She received her undergraduate degree in political science from Brown University, where she was a staff reporter for the Brown Daily Herald.

Katie is on the trial team for these cases:

When The Variable Annuity Life Insurance Company noticed that its financial advisers (and their contact databases) were being aggressively recruited by the competition in what looked like a coordinated campaign, VALIC retained Reilly Pozner as national counsel to protect its trade secrets and enforce its non-competition agreements in 20 cases in courts around the country. Due to the firm's skillful use of temporary restraining orders and preliminary injunctions, VALIC has achieved some settlements and has seen a significant decrease in unfair competition by its former employees and a significant decrease in competitor recruitment.

Reilly Pozner has been approved by the Lehman Brothers bankruptcy court to act as Lehman’s national coordinating and lead trial counsel in prosecuting claims against mortgage loan originators that sold Lehman defective loans. Katie is part of the the ten-lawyer team in this significant representation – involving more than 100 cases in 26 states.

Quote

"I love the strategic 'chess match' aspect of litigation. If I were not a litigator, however, I would probably be a political speech writer. The rhetorical tools and facts that sway a judge and a jury in a courtroom could help an elected official's words resonate with an audience."
