### 1. What is a Registered Trade Marks Attorney?

A Registered Trade Marks Attorney is a person registered to advise and act in Australian trade mark matters. The title is protected by law. Nobody can use it without holding the registration.

In Australia, "attorney" in this field means a trade marks attorney or a patent attorney. It does not mean any lawyer, as it does in the United States.

Trade marks attorneys are regulated by the Trans-Tasman IP Attorneys Board and must follow its Code of Conduct, which covers competence, confidentiality and conflicts of interest. You can check anyone's registration on the Board's [public register](https://www.ttipattorney.gov.au/for-clients/how-to-engage-an-attorney/find-an-ip-attorney-or-firm).

Our work centres on the trade marks register: searches, applications, examination reports, oppositions, non-use removals, renewals, ownership changes, overseas filing and portfolio management.

Registration as an attorney does not cover court proceedings. We advise on infringement and enforcement up to that point, and we will refer you to a litigation lawyer if your matter needs to go to court.

### 2. How is a trade mark attorney different from a lawyer or a solicitor?

Both can advise on trade marks and file applications. The difference is in their training and focus.

A **trade marks attorney** is registered after completing specialist study in trade marks law and practice. The focus is on getting, keeping and defending trade mark registrations before IP Australia.

An **IP lawyer** is an admitted lawyer who focuses on intellectual property. Lawyers can run court cases, which trade marks attorneys cannot. Some people hold both qualifications.

A **general solicitor** handles a wide range of legal work. Trade mark experience varies, so it is worth asking how much of their work involves trade marks.

|                   | Trade marks attorney                                                                | IP lawyer                                          | General solicitor                                 |
| ----------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------- |
| Main work         | Trade mark searches, applications, objections, oppositions, renewals and portfolios | IP advice, agreements, enforcement and court cases | Broad legal work, which may include trade marks   |
| Court proceedings | No                                                                                  | Yes                                                | Yes                                               |
| Often chosen for  | Registering and managing trade marks                                                | Court orders, injunctions and damages              | A trade mark question within a wider legal matter |

If your goal is to register and protect a brand, a trade marks attorney is a specialist in exactly that work. Our [trade mark application service](https://www.signifyip.com.au/services/trademark-applications) covers the work from strategy through to filing.

### 3. What can a trade mark attorney help you with?

Most of the value is in the decisions made before the application is filed. Once filed, the owner, the trade mark and the goods and services are largely fixed.

#### Searching a name

We offer three levels of search. Our [free preliminary trade mark check](https://www.signifyip.com.au/free-trademark-search) looks for identical and near-identical names on the Australian register. Our Standard search adds names that sound or look similar, conflicts in related classes, and our assessment of the likelihood of acceptance. Our Comprehensive search also covers business names, domain names and unregistered use in the market. See our [professional trade mark search](https://www.signifyip.com.au/services/trademark-searches) page.

#### Choosing the owner

The owner must be a person or a legal entity, such as a company. A business name cannot own a trade mark, and if a trust runs the business, the trustee is the applicant. We confirm the right owner before filing. The applicant can be changed later, but that does not solve the problem. If the trade mark is not filed in the name of the rightful owner from the outset, the application or registration can be challenged.

#### Choosing what to file

A word, a logo and a combined logo each give different rights. We look at what customers use to identify you and what is likely to survive a rebrand.

#### Choosing classes and goods or services

Australia uses 45 classes: 1 to 34 for goods and 35 to 45 for services. We write the list around what you sell now and where the business is heading. Our [trade mark classes guide](https://www.signifyip.com.au/blog/trademark-classes-cheat-sheet-nice-classification) explains how classes work.

#### Filing the application

We check the owner, the filing route and every detail before filing, then report the filing details to you. Our [registration guide](https://www.signifyip.com.au/guides/how-to-register-trade-mark-australia) sets out the full process.

#### Responding to an examination report

An examiner may object because the name is not distinctive enough or is too close to an earlier trade mark. We explain the objection, your options and the cost of each. See our [examination report service](https://www.signifyip.com.au/services/examination-reports).

#### Oppositions and removals

We act for clients opposing or defending applications, and in non-use removal matters, before IP Australia.

#### Renewals and portfolio management

We keep owner details, renewals and coverage up to date as the business changes. See our [portfolio management service](https://www.signifyip.com.au/services/portfolio-management).

#### Overseas filing

An Australian registration gives you no rights overseas. We file through the Madrid Protocol or directly in each country through trusted overseas associates. See our [international trade mark service](https://www.signifyip.com.au/services/international-trademarks).

### 4. When do you need an attorney, and when can you file it yourself?

You are allowed to file a trade mark application yourself. Whether you should depends on what a mistake would cost you.

The form is the easy part. The risk sits in the decisions behind it: who owns the trade mark, what is filed, and which goods and services are listed. A wrong choice often stays hidden until an objection, an opposition or the day you try to enforce.

We recommend using an attorney when:

* the name already has customers or launch spending behind it
* you have found an earlier trade mark that looks or sounds close
* the name describes the product, service or location
* more than one person or company uses the brand
* the business spans several classes or plans to expand
* a franchise, licence, sale or investment depends on the trade mark
* you need protection in more than one country
* IP Australia has issued an examination report
* someone has opposed your application or applied to remove your registration
* you have received a letter alleging infringement.

If you are not sure, start with our [free preliminary trade mark check](https://www.signifyip.com.au/free-trademark-search). We will tell you whether the name looks straightforward and what it would cost for us to handle it.

### 5. How do you choose a trade mark attorney in Australia?

Check four things before you hand over the work: registration, who does the work, what is included, and what it costs.

* Check the attorney on the [official register](https://www.ttipattorney.gov.au/for-clients/how-to-engage-an-attorney/find-an-ip-attorney-or-firm).
* Ask how much of the practice's work is trade marks.
* Confirm who will review the name, draft the application and sign off the advice.
* Ask for a clear scope showing what the fee includes and excludes.
* Confirm that government fees are shown separately from professional fees.
* Ask how extra work is priced if there is an objection or opposition.
* Ask how quickly you can expect a reply.
* Ask what happens if the matter ends up in court.

A good first answer explains the main risk in plain English and tells you what is still uncertain. Be wary of anyone who treats a search as a guarantee, recommends every possible class or cannot explain who should own the trade mark.

You can read [examples of our work](https://www.signifyip.com.au/case-studies) and [Hollie Ford's background](https://www.signifyip.com.au/about/hollie-ford) to see whether we are the right fit.

### 6. What does a trade mark cost in Australia?

There are two costs: government fees, charged per class, and professional fees.

| Government fee                                       | Amount                |
| ---------------------------------------------------- | --------------------- |
| Standard application using pre-approved descriptions | $250 per class        |
| Standard application with custom descriptions        | $400 per class        |
| TM Headstart request                                 | $200 per class        |
| TM Headstart conversion to a formal application      | $130 per class        |
| Renewal                                              | $400 per class online |

Government fees change from time to time. We confirm the current fees in your quote.

Our professional fees are fixed and quoted before any work starts, with government fees shown separately. The cost depends mainly on the number of classes, the level of search, and whether an objection or opposition arises. Our [trade mark application service](https://www.signifyip.com.au/services/trademark-applications) page explains what is included.

A cheaper filing can cost more in the end if the owner, the trade mark or the class is wrong. Those decisions are hard to change after filing, and government fees are generally not refunded.

### 7. How long does an Australian trade mark last?

A registration lasts 10 years from the filing date. It can be renewed for another 10 years as many times as you like.

Renewal can be done up to 12 months before the due date. If it is missed, there are six more months to renew with a late fee for each month. After that, the registration is removed.

Renewal alone does not keep a trade mark safe. It also has to be used, or it can be removed for non-use. Our [portfolio management service](https://www.signifyip.com.au/services/portfolio-management) tracks renewals and keeps owner details current.

### 8. What are recurring reasons a trade mark is refused?

Most objections we see fall into three groups.

#### The name is not distinctive enough

Descriptive words, common surnames, place names and everyday trade terms need to stay available for other traders. A name like FAST DELIVERY for courier services tells customers what the service does, not who provides it. Adding a domain ending or a simple graphic rarely fixes this.

The risk for you is spending on a name competitors can also use, then facing an objection after launch.

#### The name is too close to an earlier trade mark

An objection arises when your name is the same as, or deceptively similar to, an earlier trade mark for the same or related goods or services.

This can sometimes be overcome with argument, evidence of your own earlier use, consent from the other owner or a narrower application. Each option has a cost and none is certain.

#### The name is misleading or restricted

A name can be refused if it is likely to mislead customers, or if it contains a word or emblem restricted by legislation.

Each objection needs its own answer. Evidence that helps with one will often do nothing for another. Our [examination report service](https://www.signifyip.com.au/services/examination-reports) deals with the exact objection raised.

### 9. What are costly trade mark mistakes?

These are the mistakes we see most often.

**Treating a business name as ownership.** Registering a business name with ASIC lets you trade under the name. It gives you no rights to the name itself. You can build a reputation under a name that someone else has registered as a trade mark, and be forced to rebrand.

**Naming the wrong owner.** A founder files in their own name when the company runs the business, or a business name or trust is listed. Changing the applicant later does not fix it. If the rightful owner was not named from the outset, the registration can be challenged, often when you try to license, sell or enforce.

**Choosing the wrong class or wording.** The class number is only the start. Protection depends on the goods and services written in the application, and the wrong wording can miss the product that earns your revenue.

**Filing the logo when the name matters.** A logo registration protects the design. After a redesign, protection for the name can be thin, and a new application is needed.

**Filing after launch.** Using the name publicly shows it to competitors, and changing it gets more expensive every month.

**Missing a deadline.** An examination report, an opposition notice or a renewal each has a deadline. Missing one can end an application or a registration.

We check each of these before filing. See our [application service](https://www.signifyip.com.au/services/trademark-applications).

### 10. Do you need to trade mark your business name?

Consider it when the name identifies your goods or services and losing it would hurt the business.

Many business owners assume a business name or company name protects the brand. It does not. [ASIC says the same](https://www.asic.gov.au/for-business-and-companies/business-names/register-a-business-name/business-names-vs-trademarks).

| Registration          | What it gives you                                                                    |
| --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| ASIC business name    | Lets you trade under the name. Gives you no rights to the name itself.               |
| Company name          | The legal name of your company. Does not protect the brand.                          |
| Domain name           | Use of that web address while it stays registered. No rights to the words elsewhere. |
| Registered trade mark | Legal rights to the name in Australia, for the goods and services listed.            |

The problem appears when a business registers its business name, company name and domain, and never checks the trade marks register. The conflict is then found after customers know the brand.

Our article on [trade marks compared with business names](https://www.signifyip.com.au/blog/trade-mark-vs-business-name) explains this in more detail.

### 11. Can you use a logo without a trade mark, and what do the TM and R symbols mean?

Yes. You can use a logo without registering it, as long as it does not infringe someone else's rights. Use over time can build a reputation that gives you some protection, but proving it takes evidence and is harder than relying on a registration.

**™** shows you are claiming the name or logo as a trade mark. You can use it without a registration. It does not prove you own the name, and it does not protect you if the name infringes an earlier trade mark.

**®** shows the trade mark is registered. Use it only for a trade mark registered in Australia, in the form it was registered. Using ® on an unregistered trade mark can be an offence. A registration in another country does not count.

### 12. What is trade mark infringement?

Infringement happens when someone uses, as a brand, a name or logo that is the same as or deceptively similar to a registered trade mark. It applies where the goods or services are the same as, or closely related to, those the trade mark is registered for.

Well-known trade marks get wider protection and can be infringed by use on unrelated goods or services.

Not every similar use infringes. It depends on the two names, the goods or services and how the name is being used. There are also defences, such as using your own registered trade mark, using your own name in good faith, and continuous use that began before the other trade mark. Each has conditions, and the FAQ below lists the main ones.

A court can order the infringer to stop, and to pay damages or hand over profits. Company directors can be personally liable in some cases.

**How to avoid infringing.** Search before you commit to a name. Check for names that look, sound or mean the same across the goods and services you will sell. Keep a record of how you chose the name and when you started using it.

**If you receive a letter of demand, or find someone using your name.** Talk to us before you respond. We advise on infringement and enforcement up to the point of court proceedings. We do not run court cases, and we will refer you to a litigation lawyer if one is needed.

### 13. Who can oppose your trade mark, and what happens if you do not defend it?

Anyone can oppose an accepted trade mark application. Common grounds are that the opponent owns or used the name first, that your name is too similar to theirs, or that the application was made in bad faith.

After acceptance, your application is advertised for two months. An opposition must be filed in that time.

If you are opposed, a notice of intention to defend must be filed. For applications advertised on or after 18 December 2025, the deadline is two months from receiving the opponent's statement of grounds. Earlier applications may have one month. If the deadline is missed, your application lapses.

We act for both opponents and applicants. If you have received an opposition notice, send it to us through our [trade mark disputes enquiry](https://www.signifyip.com.au/services/trademark-disputes#enquire) as soon as you can.

### 14. Can you lose a trade mark if you do not use it?

Yes. Another person can apply to remove a registration, for some or all of its goods and services, if it has not been used for three years.

In most cases they cannot apply until the trade mark has been registered for three years. For trade marks filed before 24 February 2019, the wait is five years from filing.

You can oppose a removal application by proving use. Useful evidence includes dated invoices, packaging, advertising, website captures and sales records. It must show the trade mark used in Australia on the goods or services being challenged. Use by a licensee counts only if you control how they use the name.

A [portfolio review](https://www.signifyip.com.au/services/portfolio-management) compares what is registered with what you use, so gaps are found before someone else finds them.

### 15. How do you become a trade mark attorney in Australia?

You do not need a law degree. You need a qualification at diploma level or higher, in any field, plus approved study in intellectual property law, trade marks law, trade marks practice and professional conduct. A law degree alone does not meet the trade marks requirements.

Applicants must also be of good fame, integrity and character. The Trans-Tasman IP Attorneys Board approves the qualifications before registration is granted.

Once registered, an attorney must follow the Code of Conduct and complete continuing professional education every year.

### 16. How does Signify IP work with you?

Signify IP is a boutique trade marks attorney practice led by [Hollie Ford, Director and Registered Trade Marks Attorney](https://www.signifyip.com.au/about/hollie-ford). We are based in Eastwood, South Australia, and work with clients across Australia.

We start with the decision in front of you: whether to adopt a name, file it, answer an objection, defend an application or tidy up a portfolio.

Before filing, we check the owner, the trade mark, the goods and services and any earlier trade marks. We explain the risks in plain English. If we need more information, we tell you what we need and why it matters.

Our fees are fixed and quoted before any work starts, with government fees shown separately. We have filed hundreds of trade mark applications.

We handle searches, applications, examination reports, oppositions, removals, renewals, overseas filing and portfolio management. We advise on infringement and enforcement, and refer court proceedings to a litigation lawyer.

You can read [selected case studies](https://www.signifyip.com.au/case-studies) or find details of our [Adelaide office](https://www.signifyip.com.au/locations/trademark-attorney-adelaide).

### 17. What should you bring to a first conversation?

There is no charge for a first conversation. It helps to have:

* the exact name, logo or slogan you want to protect
* who owns the brand, and how they relate to the business
* a plain list of what you sell now
* any products, services or countries you plan to add
* when you first used the name, or when you plan to launch
* any earlier trade mark that worries you
* any applications or registrations you already hold
* any letter, examination report or opposition notice you have received.

If you have received a notice, send us the whole document, including the date and the deadline. For an examination report, use our [examination report enquiry form](https://www.signifyip.com.au/services/examination-reports#enquire). For an opposition or dispute, use our [trade mark disputes enquiry](https://www.signifyip.com.au/services/trademark-disputes#enquire).

You do not need to prepare legal arguments. Your website, packaging and a short explanation of how customers buy from you are more useful.

### 18. What are the key decisions?

* Check that your adviser is on the official register as a Registered Trade Marks Attorney, and find out who will do the work.
* Get advice before filing when a rebrand, dispute, investment or overseas launch would make a mistake expensive.
* Treat the owner and the goods and services as the two decisions that matter most.
* Do not rely on a business name, company name or domain name to protect the brand.
* Act on every deadline in an IP Australia notice.
* Use a trade marks attorney to register, defend and manage a trade mark, and a litigation lawyer for court proceedings.

### 19. Frequently asked questions

#### Where can I find a trade mark attorney in Australia?

The Trans-Tasman IP Attorneys Board keeps a [public register](https://www.ttipattorney.gov.au/for-clients/how-to-engage-an-attorney/find-an-ip-attorney-or-firm). Signify IP is based in Eastwood, South Australia, and works with clients across Australia.

#### Do you need a law degree to be a trade mark attorney?

No. You need a qualification at diploma level or higher, approved study in trade marks law and practice, and to meet character requirements.

#### How do you become a trade mark attorney in Australia?

Complete an eligible qualification and the approved intellectual property study, meet the character requirements, have the Board approve your qualifications, and apply for registration.

#### What is the difference between a trade mark attorney and a trade mark lawyer?

A trade marks attorney is a registered specialist who registers, defends and manages trade marks. A trade mark lawyer is an admitted lawyer who can also run court cases. Some people are both.

#### Do I need a lawyer to register a trade mark?

No. Most trade mark applications in Australia are handled by trade marks attorneys, not lawyers. We can handle yours from search through to registration.

#### Can I file a trade mark without an attorney?

Yes. You are then responsible for the owner, the trade mark, the classes, the wording and every deadline. We recommend advice where the name is descriptive, an earlier trade mark is close, or a mistake would be costly.

#### How much does a trade mark cost in Australia?

Government fees start at $250 per class. Professional fees are separate. We give you a fixed-fee quote before any work starts.

#### How do trade mark attorneys charge?

Usually a fixed fee for searches and applications. Objections and oppositions are often priced in stages, because the work depends on what the examiner or the other side does. Government fees are separate.

#### Should I trade mark my business name in Australia?

Consider it when customers know you by the name and being forced to change it would cost you. Registering a business name with ASIC lets you trade under it. It gives you no rights to the name.

#### What are costly trade mark mistakes?

Naming the wrong owner, choosing the wrong classes or wording, filing only the logo, relying on a business name, launching before searching and missing a deadline.

#### How long does an Australian trade mark last?

Ten years from the filing date, renewable every 10 years with no limit. It also needs to be used, or it can be removed for non-use.

#### Can you use a logo without a trade mark?

Yes, as long as it does not infringe someone else's rights. A registration gives you clearer and stronger rights than relying on reputation.

#### Is it illegal to put TM on a logo?

No. ™ only shows you are claiming the logo as a trade mark. The ® symbol is different and should only be used for a trade mark registered in Australia.

#### What is a recurring reason a trade mark is refused?

The name is too descriptive, or it is too close to an earlier trade mark. Each objection needs its own response.

#### Who can oppose a trade mark?

Anyone, within two months of the application being advertised. Opponents are usually competitors or owners of earlier trade marks.

#### Can you lose a trade mark if you do not defend it?

Yes. An opposed application lapses if a notice of intention to defend is not filed in time. A registration can be removed if a non-use application is not opposed.

#### What constitutes trade mark infringement?

Using, as a brand, a name or logo that is the same as or deceptively similar to a registered trade mark, for the same or closely related goods or services. Well-known trade marks have wider protection.

#### Who is liable for trade mark infringement?

The person or company using the name. Directors and others closely involved can also be personally liable in some cases.

#### What remedies are available for trade mark infringement?

A court can order the use to stop, and award damages or the infringer's profits.

#### What defences may apply to a trade mark infringement claim?

The defences are narrow, and each has conditions. The main ones are:

* you are using your own registered trade mark, for the goods or services it is registered for
* you are using your own name or business name in good faith
* you are using words in good faith to describe your goods or services, such as their kind, quality or origin
* you are using the trade mark in good faith to show what your product is for, such as a spare part
* you have used your name continuously since before the other owner filed their application and before they started using their trade mark
* the court decides you would have been entitled to register the trade mark yourself, for example because of honest concurrent use.

The last defence is harder to rely on than it used to be. In 2026 the High Court held that honesty is judged by the standards of ordinary, decent people, and at the time of each use. Carrying on after you learn of the other trade mark can count against you.

Often the first question is whether you are using the name as a brand at all. Using words only to describe your goods may not infringe.

If you have received a letter of demand, talk to us before you respond.

#### How do you avoid infringing someone else's trade mark?

Search before you launch, including names that look, sound or mean the same. Get advice if an earlier trade mark looks close.

#### Does an Australian trade mark protect you overseas?

No. Overseas protection needs a filing in each country, directly or through the Madrid Protocol. We handle both.

### 20. What should you do next?

[Get in touch](https://www.signifyip.com.au/contact) with the name you are considering and a plain description of what you sell. Tell us who will own it, when you plan to launch and any countries you have in mind.

If IP Australia or another party has already written to you, use our [examination report enquiry form](https://www.signifyip.com.au/services/examination-reports#enquire) or our [trade mark disputes enquiry](https://www.signifyip.com.au/services/trademark-disputes#enquire).

We will review what you send and give you a fixed-fee quote before any work starts.
