Is a trade mark the right choice for you?
If you want to establish a brand for your product or service, you should consider creating a distinctive trade mark.
A trade mark protects the identity of your goods and services. Once you register a trade mark, you have the legal right to use, licence or sell it within Australia for the goods and services for which it is registered. You also have the right to prevent others from using it.
If you do not register, another trader could register your brand as a trade mark and you could be forced to defend your rights - you may even need to re-brand.
Are you eligible for a trademark?
To apply for a trade mark, you must intend to use it.
The owner of the trade mark must be an individual, a company, an incorporated association or a combination of these.
You can not apply for a trade mark in the name of a business, but the individuals that own the business may apply for a trade mark.

How to Conduct a Trademark Search
Mon, 25 Nov 2013 14:57:06 -0600
The definition of a trademark is a symbol, word, or series of words that identify a company, or a product or service of that company. Before you can register your business name or company logo for trademark protection, IP Australia must analyse your application to determine whether your mark is eligible for registration. One of the conditions for eligibility is that your mark must be completely unique within your market, and is not identical to or confusingly similar with another mark. If your mark looks like another company's mark, and if that mark identifies the same goods and services, you will be infringing upon the rights of that trademark holder. Infringement upon a registered trademark holder's mark can come with legal ramifications.

Trademark Protection in Licensing Deals Gone South
Mon, 25 Feb 2013 07:37:24 -0600
Most startup businesses work very hard to get a trademark for their company logo. This is a very wise idea and it prevents some copycats, but not all of them. Often people will try to pretend that you are partnering with them, and stick your logo on their website. Sometimes they will reason that if they've done some business with you then they can use the "partnering" terminology, something I believe has been so abused in recent years, perhaps even going back to the early 90s. If you allow one company to do it, other companies will follow suit.
