FAQS

What is a trade mark?

A trade mark is a legally recognised, intellectual property right that protects business names, logos, slogans and unique brand identifiers, preventing others from using them without permission.

What is the difference between a Melbourne trademark lawyer and trademark attorney?

A trade mark attorney specialises in registering and protecting trade marks and is registered with IP Australia. They handle trade mark applications, enforcement, defence and any issues related to trade mark opposition.

In contrast, a trade mark lawyer is a legal professional who can represent clients in court disputes over trade mark infringement but may not have as much experience in preparing and filing trademark applications as trade mark attorneys who do this on a regular basis.

Can I register my trade mark without professional help?

Yes, it is possible to pursue registration of a trade mark without the assistance of a trade mark attorney or lawyer. However, without adequate guidance in relevant legislation, you may not be successful or not secure the necessary level of protection for your brand.

Not keen to go it alone? To ensure Australian enterprises of all sizes can access necessary legal support and guidance IP Guardian’s trade mark attorneys offer transparent pricing and affordable fixed-fee services.

Do I have to register my trade mark?

While trade mark registration is not mandatory, it is highly recommended. If you use a trade mark without registering it, you may have some legal protection under common law, but enforcing your rights can be costly and difficult. If you don’t secure your trade mark registration or complete appropriate searches, you also risk infringing another party’s trade mark.

Does an Australian issued trade mark protect me overseas?

No, an Australian trade mark only protects your brand within Australia. To secure international protection, you must file separate applications in other countries or use the Madrid Protocol for global trade mark registration.

Where requested, our Melbourne trade mark attorneys can also guide you through the international trade mark registration process to protect your brand worldwide.
