Service Overview
We are here to guide you through the IP landscape whether this is your first time, or if you are experienced and needing expert input. Many firms are happy to simply file your applications, but we go the extra step to make sure that your portfolio is working for you.
Speak to us to discover how our tailored patent, trade mark, design, and management services protect your innovations and brand identity effectively.
IP Management
We look after your IP portfolio, well beyond the registration phase. In fact, you may already have an IP portfolio, but it might be difficult to justify a dedicated IP Manager and so you struggle to effectively manage it. If so, we can assist with making the portfolio work for you. We can ensure nothing slips through the cracks and improve the overall efficiency.
Application and Registration Support
We guide you through the process of preparing and filing applications, including detailed explanations of what to expect in the future. This includes patents, trade marks, and designs. We provide precise advice to secure your IP under Australian and New Zealand law, and across the world via WIPO or directly.
Freedom to Operate
We help with peace of mind in the earliest stages. For example, when you launch a new product or brand, enter a new market, or even when you are just considering significant R&D investment. We provide searches and opinions, monitoring, risk assessments, and other services to help prevent any nasty surprises into the future.
Unregistered Assets
We can help identify and manage the forms of IP that can’t be formally registered, but which are still highly valuable to your business. For example, this might include copyright, trade secrets, or unregistered trade marks or designs. This is an often overlooked but critical function, as these assets provide value to your business that can be captured and utilised.

We provide a holistic approach to your Intellectual Property. That is, one custom fit to your needs and designed to evolve with your business.
IP Portfolio Management
Some companies have an IP portfolio but find it hard to manage. For example, they may not have a dedicated IP Manager, so the portfolio becomes overlooked or neglected. So, we can help you manage your portfolio, making sure nothing is missed and improving efficiency.
Commercial Strategy
Making your IP work for you involves many factors that differ for each business. So, we can help create a plan to get value from your Intellectual Property. For example, this includes taking steps to identify IP, securing protection before sharing inventions, watching marketplaces, and deciding when and how to enforce your rights.
Entitlement and Licensing
Proper documents and agreements help avoid future IP ownership disputes. To help, we can review or create contracts, employment agreements, IP assignments, and ensure you truly own the IP you believe you do.
Freedom To Operate
Starting a new business or developing a new product can be risky if you don’t know your competitors’ IP rights. Therefore, we research the risks and help you create a plan to handle any issues now or later. You can sleep easier by knowing the IP landscape and avoiding surprises.
