Client Reviews
"Robert was outstanding"
Robert was outstanding. He was pro-active with his views and was very forthcoming with the approaches that should be taken and possible ramifications. He kept us informed all the way, was very definitive on things and just handled every little bump and left field issue along the way in his stride. The way he communicated with the Australian Taxation Office was exceptional.
“Rouse Lawyers assisted our fast-growing commercial fit-out and building business for around 4 years. We have called upon the firm’s expertise in intellectual property, software development and contract negotiation matters.”
