Protection of Company Names, Business Names and Domain Names

  • Company name, business name and website nameĀ registrationsĀ do not provide ANY legal ownership of the name.
  • Many businesses trade unaware that they are infringing unregisteredĀ OR registered trademark rights.
  • If you have been trading without a trademark attorney having assessed the status and ownership of the name throughout Australia, then you should seek advice immediately.
  • We assess whether there are any infringement issues or liabilities by conducting a trademark search.
  • It is not sufficient alone to own a registered trademark, as this process does not cover unregistered trademark rights.
  • Not knowing of a trademark is not a defence against a Court finding of infringement, so act now before it is too late.
