Protect your brand with patents
Is your brand ready to launch or increasing in popularity with zero legal protection in place? If you’re keen to stop third parties from profiting off your brand’s reputation, the best thing you can do is register your trade mark.
Sometimes incorrectly referred to as a brand patent, a trade mark is the best way to protect your brand from copycats and infringing behaviour. If you’re wondering how to begin this process or seeking support with trade marking your brand, IP Guardian can help.
As specialist patent and trade mark attorneys, we offer decades of experience and are leading experts in protecting our client’s interests across a range of industries.
Is your brand already trade marked and you wish to pursue a brand patent registration for a unique innovation, process or method associated with your business? If so, we can assist with this too.
The brand protection process
Brand names, logos, slogans or similar are not covered by patents in Australia, as these are not the appropriate forms of intellectual property to protect brands. Instead, brands are protectable by trade marks. However, there are situations where you may need patent protection for your new products, in which case you could protect your brand as well as the technology of your new product.
We are committed to supporting Australian innovators to protect their ideas and profit from their hard work. Whether you need a trade mark for your brand or have queries about how to protect the new technology your product uses using a patent, we’re the team you can trust.
With our guidance you can gain a better understanding of:
- How to perform a patent check
- How to patent an invention
- How much it costs to get your brands protected
- Limitations in patenting and when a trade mark is more suitable
- Defending infringing behaviour and more.
