Virtual IP Advisory Services
Clarity. Compliance. Confidence.
Expert IP Advice. Confident Decisions.
Board-level IP and brand protection strategy for founders and startups. Fast, commercial, and aligned to your growth plan.
Building a brand is a commercial decision, not a form-filling exercise. Our virtual in-house IP advisory services gives founders and leadership teams direct access to senior IP lawyers without the expense of a permanent in-house hire.
You’ll leave with:
- a clear go / no-go view on your brand name (and what to do if it’s risky)
- a trade mark filing roadmap aligned to your go-to-market plan
-
practical IP hygiene actions to keep you investor-ready (ownership, contractors, collaborators)
What is it?
Think of our Virtual IP Advisory services as your business’ on-call IP counsel. A structured, strategy led advisory service where we help you:
- assess your brand and naming risk in Australia and abroad
- clear registration strategies – what and when to protect your brand
- align trade mark scope with your go-to-market plan
- avoid costly rebrands and avoidable objections
- build an IP story you can confidently share with investors, retailers, platforms and partners.
These services are best suited to:
- founders about to launch or rebrand and wanting a go/no-go view
- founders who want senior legal guidance, but don’t need a full in-house IP hire
- startups raising capital or entering an eccelerator/incubator
- teams expanding product lines or moving into new markets
Depending on your stage and goals, our virtual in-house IP advisory services outcomes include:
- Risk view – a practical assessment of registrability and brand risk including what the real risks are, and how to manage them.
- Protection strategy – what to file and what not to file, and why.
- Class strategy – a defensible scope aligned to what you sell now and what’s coming next.
- Filing pathway – the right approach for your circumstances including whether to file now, use a staged approach, or rework the brand first.
- Brand protection roadmap – how to monitor, enforce, and protect your brand as you grow.
- Commercial guardrails – ownership basics and future-proofing for co-founds, contractors and collaborators.
If you’re planning overseas expansion, we can also map the options for international protection and sequencing.
