Patent Lawyers

If you wish to protect and commercialise your own inventions, you will generally need a specialist patent lawyer to help draft, and to manage the patent application process. At OpenLegal, our lawyers have redesigned the patent process, making it easier to engage with a professional law firm without the expense and out-of-date practices of traditional lawyers.

A patent is a legal tool used to protect innovative inventions. In essence, this is a way of protecting intellectual property to the extent that the patent holder’s invention can be used by them, and only them. However, this is a simplistic explanation. In actuality, patents are complex, and while there is no net negative to obtaining one, it is still necessary to understand the nature of patents.

OpenLegal will work with you to ensure your products / inventions are protected, and can be commercialised freely.

Our services include:

• Provisional patent applications
• Patent searches (in Australia and internationally)
• Innovation patents
• Dealing with objections
• Responding to examination reports
