WYNNES - THE FIRM

We are a successful Patent and Trade Mark Attorney firm with offices at Waterfront Place in Brisbane.  The focus of the firm is to provide a personalised quality service to obtain intellectual property (IP) rights for our clients in the most cost effective manner and in accordance with their business plans.   

Part of our culture is to foster relationships with clients so that they feel comfortable in contacting the attorney to discuss a matter without fear of being billed for every second.  We feel communication and education of the IP process are vital to achieving the goals of the client.  In this way we realise it is a team effort to successfully commercialise the client’s IP. 

We are a professional service firm offering a range of services focusing on the areas of patents, designs, and trademarks.  With related matters that are outside our offered services, we can refer clients to other professionals from our network of contacts

 

SO WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT?

Firstly the experience
The patent and trade mark attorneys on staff have had experience in dealing with preparing and filing applications, prosecuting applications, managing and enforcing rights of patents, designs and trade marks in Australia, New Zealand and other overseas countries.  The patent and trade mark attorneys are registered Australian and New Zealand patent and trade mark attorneys.

Secondly we do not compromise on quality
We appreciate that the commercial value of an invention, design or trade mark is encapsulated in the associated intellectual property rights.  If the intellectual property rights are not properly prepared, prosecuted and managed, then others may freely infringe or potential licensees simply "work around" the patent, design or trade mark.

Thirdly we offer a number of free services that foster the attorney and client relationship and assist the client in managing their IP
We provide free information regarding patents, designs and trade marks written from an applicant’s point of view and in regards to commercialisation of their project. 

Our initial consultation with a new client is free and we advise the client of their options before they provide us with instructions.

We also prepare a summary table of each client's IP portfolio, identifying the IP and next required action and if possible expected costs, so to assist a client in managing their IP and budget for the upcoming year.  The summary table is prepared on an annual basis and free of charge.

Fourthly we always view projects with a commercial perspective because IP is a marketable and tradeable product 
With this in mind we prepare specifications with a description of the commercial advantages of the invention.

We provide an ongoing service in attending group or strategy meetings and advise on direction to provide maximum protection.

We actively encourage clients to exploit their inventions and as a consequence our clients have a comparatively high success rate in commercialising their inventions.  We can also provide advice on strategies for commercialising an invention based on our clients’ cumulative experience.

Fifthly we have a competitive price structure.
