Trade Marks Commercial Lawyers

Trade Marks are complex.
But we love registering them and protecting your business.

In order to build, strengthen and grow a brand, that brand’s assets – name, logo, product names, and so on – should be properly protected under Australian law. One of the best ways to do that is through obtaining a trade mark.  

Our lawyers assist businesses across Australia through the entire process of trademark registration, from initial assessment, registration with IP Australia, and management of opposition claims.

The Australian trade mark system is complex, requiring you to choose from IP Australia’s 45 classes, and conduct an exhaustive trade mark search, before you even start on the application. If you don’t have the time (or the energy), don’t worry because we do.

Trademark Monitoring and Protection
