Trade Mark Application Process

1. Application

The application filing phase of a trade mark application is one of the most critical phases. This is a short list of just some of the steps that must be done correctly to obtain a valid and enforceable trademar

For the purposes of trade mark registration, goods and services are classified into 45 classes. It is important that you file the trade mark in the correct class.
You must file the trademark in the correct name or it may be invalid.
You need to file for the correct goods and services. If you do not do so, you might not be able to enforce your trade mark rights.

2. Examination

Next, the application will be examined by IP Australia: this is the start of a conversation with IP Australia

if an examination report is issued by IP Australia, we can respond to the examination report explaining why the trade mark should be accepted for registration. This is why it is vital to know the trademark cases that have been handed down by the Courts.
We can respond to the examination reports by arguing a point, by providing evidence of use, consent to use letters and other legal techniques.
We can appear any any hearing on the matter and appeal decisions to the Federal Court.

3. Trademark Opposition

Once the application is accepted by IP Australia, it will be advertised for opposition purposes. Any trader can oppose acceptance of the mark during the opposition period

We can assist in defending a trade mark opposition proceeding including appearing at hearings
We are experienced in filing Notices of Intention to Oppose, Statements of Grounds and Particulars, evidence in opposition proceedings and arguing cases
Once a decision is handed down we can assist in appealing the decision to the Federal Court or defending an appeal
If you want to oppose a trade mark – you must move quickly
