His legal interests focus on contract and intellectual property law, and he is passionate about merging legal expertise with creative work—particularly in areas such as producing, contract negotiation, and IP protection within the film industry.

Burrell-Cowan’s legal experience includes a clerkship with a Denver District Judge and various externships throughout law school. As a law clerk, he represented victims of military sexual trauma under the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy with the Rocky Mountain Veterans Advocacy Project. Under Colorado’s Student Practice Act, he secured a guilty verdict in a challenging misdemeanor trial in Arapahoe County through strong advocacy, compelling testimony, and innovative use of technology. He also collaborated with a judge to implement more inclusive gender-identifying language on juror forms in the same county. At Cocona Labs, Inc., he gained hands-on experience in corporate law, contracts, negotiation, intellectual property, and licensing.

As an actor, Cowan has appeared in numerous acclaimed film and television productions, including Better Call Saul, Preacher, War on Everyone, The Short History of the Long Road, Odd Thomas, Camouflage, and Manhattan.

As a screenwriter, Cowan has been named a finalist in multiple international competitions. His pilot Don’t Say Gay! earned a Top 1% accolade on Coverfly prior to the platform’s closure. His filmmaking experience spans the full lifecycle of indie film production. His debut feature Camouflage—which he wrote, directed, produced, edited, and starred in—was financed through a successful $55,000 crowdfunding campaign. He collaborated with Luber Roklin Entertainment to cast actors from Game of Thrones, Pretty Little Liars, The Walking Dead, and Star Trek, and led the post-production process through to its release at New Mexico Comic Con and on digital platforms.

As an author, Cowan’s debut novel Sunshine is Forever (Inkshares, 2017) became a #1 bestseller at the Barnes & Noble in Albuquerque, where it remained #1 for three consecutive months. He independently secured 750 pre-orders to close a publishing deal, sold audiobook rights to Audible, and won an Earphones Award from AudioFile Magazine.

Outside of work, Burrell-Cowan enjoys quality time with his husband and their pets. Together they love cooking, gaming, exploring the outdoors, visiting breweries, and spending time with family. He is enthusiastic about contributing his multidisciplinary background to both the film industry and the legal community.
