Expert assistance across all intellectual property matters.
Our patent attorneys assist you in protecting your intellectual property and offer help with matters such as confidentiality agreements, copyright advice, nondisclosure agreements, and trademarks.
We offer our comprehensive legal services across Australia, providing expert assistance across all intellectual property matters.
We are experts in guiding clients through registering their designs, fulfilling legal requirements, and taking the steps toward commercialising IP. Our specialist IP lawyers are well-versed in confidential information and non disclosure agreements and are happy to explain the terms and their implications for your intellectual property.
We help you with the legal protections that safeguard your ideas and creations.
When the change makers, ideas people and problem-solving experts work their magic, people pay attention. New innovations, new brands, new products, new business ideas, new inventions and new ways of doing things can make huge ripples in big and small ponds alike. But how do you prevent others from taking these ideas and using them for themselves? You establish your Intellectual Property rights. Yesterday.
IP can take many forms, and gives you control of your big ideas, innovations, and ‘products of mind’, turning your brilliance into saleable commodities and safeguarding the ‘secret sauce’ which gives you an edge. The timing of this protection is crucial, in order to establish the protection of IP rights in time to create and maintain the competitive edge your innovations give you.
We can guide you through resolving copyright infringement issues and court proceedings, as well as understanding your IP assets. Our firm excels in IP enforcement, ensuring high level protection and defence of your intellectual property rights.
Patenteur provides businesses and individuals with legal expertise in Intellectual Property protection to turn ideas into investable commodities.

Why choose Patenteur over other IP attorneys?
Real-world Intellectual Property experience
Something that sets us apart is the fact that we've not just worked in a private practice legal firm environment, but we've worked in the real world of Intellectual Property law as innovators and clients of other IP attorneys. With 20+ years of extensive experience in the IP field with real-world experience, you'll benefit from working with an IP law firm that is highly experienced and knowledgeable, with keen insights and advice that serves the practical rather than the theoretical.
Every client receives director attention
At Patenteur, every client and every matter receives dedicated attention from a director and decision-maker in our firm. This means that every client that works with us benefits from extensive and specialist legal experience in the field.
We’re experienced IP attorneys and innovators ourselves
We are a law firm that specialises in Intellectual Property law. Our attorneys have decades of experience under our belts. But what makes us different is that we’re also entrepreneurs, innovators and business owners. So we understand what is important to businesses, entrepreneurs, management teams and executives.
We’re people too, and we act like it
We’re not quite sure how to say this, but we’ve been told by many clients over the years that they love how likeable and not-self-important we are (versus what they thought to expect from experienced attorneys). We’ll take it.
Most importantly, we see your success as our success
Patenteur has always been a legal practice that's based on a relational approach rather than a transactional one. We truly care about the success of each and every one of our clients, as their success inherently becomes ours. Our intellectual property services are here to prevent any future disputes, assist our clients when dispute arises and provide advice on day-to-day business operations and how to protect your intellectual property.
