WHAT WE DO

Brands Hawker is strictly devoted to intellectual property law - we DO NOT dabble in wills and divorces - we do what we know.

The main areas of expertise are:

TRADE MARKS - searching availability, applications before the Trade Marks Office, assignments , licensing , infringement advice and overseas filing.

COPYRIGHT - identifying and advising on protection, licensing and assignment of copyright works

ADVERTISING AND MARKETING LAW - vetting advertising copy and graphics, reviewing trade promotions and competition terms and conditions, checking claims for Trade Practices Act compliance

DESIGNS - identifying registrable designs, applying for and obtaining registered designs, 

LITIGATION - practice in patent, Trade Practices Act litigation predominantly before the Federal Court of Australia

PATENTS – we do NOT draft patent specifications because we are not patent attorneys. We have plenty of experience in patent litigation, patent licensing ( in and out) and we can manage and give strategic advice about your patents to maximise your commercial advantage.
