Trade Mark Application

Filing a trade mark application yourself is easy. Filing one that holds up is not. We handle the process from application to registration, helping you get the right protection for your brand from the start.

How we handle your application

We start by confirming the right classes of goods and services for your business, then prepare and file your application with IP Australia. Getting this wrong is one of the most common — and costly — mistakes we see in self-filed applications.

Managing the examination process

If IP Australia raises an objection, we’ll explain what it means, advise you on your options and respond on your behalf. We’ll deal with the examination process and keep you informed about what happens next.

Once you’re registered

Registration gives you rights in your trade mark in Australia for ten years, with the registration renewable for further ten-year periods. We’ll keep you informed about important dates and any action needed to maintain your registration.
