Intellectual Property
Patent & Design
A patent protects a new invention or technical process, while a design registration protects the unique shape, pattern, or appearance of a product. A verified advocate can assess whether your idea qualifies, coordinate the drafting and filing of the application, and guide you through examination and any objections raised by the authorities.

Common questions
Intellectual Property — quick answers
How do I register a trademark?
Start with a search to confirm availability, then file the application in the right class — an advocate handles both.
How long does trademark registration take?
It varies with the registry and any objections; an advocate manages the process end-to-end.
What's the difference between copyright and trademark?
Copyright protects creative works; a trademark protects brand identifiers like names and logos.

Yes — via infringement notices and enforcement action; an advocate will advise the strongest route.
Can I license or sell my IP?
Yes — through licensing or assignment agreements, properly drafted.
