Intellectual Property Law

Australia is not a resources based economy and hasn't been for at least 10 years. Services now account for 70 per cent of the Australian economy. Given that intellectual property is the fuel that drives knowledge industries, it is worth protecting. However, as the owner of intellectual property rights, it’s your responsibility to ensure you enforce them.
In a rapidly changing global environment, businesses will continue to be challenged by competitors and a host of legislative changes as intellectual property laws are reformed in a bid to keep up with the increasing importance of intellectual property.
We undertake trade mark applications as part of your commercialisation strategy and are well placed to launch legal proceedings on a client’s behalf to protect your confidential information or if any trade mark or copyright infringement is causing your business loss and damage.
Effective enforcement of your IP and technology rights is necessary in order to maintain their value in legal terms, to deter potential infringers and to retain the ability to attract commercial value for your business.
