Patent Lawyer vs Patent Attorney

In Australia the role of a Patent Attorney is often confused with a Patent Lawyer.  “Patent Lawyer” is a common search mistake when seeking patent protection or dealing with patent infringement.  This is because a Patent Lawyer isn’t a recognised position in Australia.


Are you looking to protect your patent in Australia, New Zealand or overseas?
Seeking patent advice?
Or believe your patent is being infringed upon?

Australian registered Patent Attorneys specialise in patent law and in general have a more proficient knowledge of the statutory law and case law, as they deal with these matters daily.

Whether you’re looking to file, renew or dispute a patent in Australia, a Patent Attorney is likely to be your initial point of contact.  At Wynnes we can help identify and protect your IP, provide options and recommendations, and provide you with the right knowledge to better understand patent protection and its benefits.

Do you require legal representation in a patent dispute?

Lawyers provide representation in legal disputes and court proceedings.  However, attorneys are often consulted as they specialise in patent law and are best equipped for providing practical and experienced advice.
