Definitions
Most clients that come to us for IP legal advice are not aware of just how diverse and nuanced the concept is. Oftentimes, creative creations can be subject to a variety of litigious scrutiny that requires a subtle and concise approach to ensure efficacy is maintained in the process of registration.

As it is difficult to define the intangible in the same sense as you would in other facets of common litigious matters, the requirement for efficiency and knowledgeable IP legal advice is paramount.

Simply put, your representation should have a level of expertise and understanding of the many facets and categorisations of creative litigation.

By choosing Sultan Legal, you’re choosing the finest:

Trademark Lawyer In Sydney

Inclusive of matters relating to particular words, phrases, symbols, design specificities that are wholly unique and identifiable with your company or brand. These brand identifiers could be construed as taglines, images, slogans, even colours in certain situations.

The main responsibility of Sultan Legal as your trademark lawyer in Sydney is to ensure that you have your symbols and representations covered and registered to ensure maximal protection from infringements.

Patent Lawyer In Sydney

Undoubtedly the word has echoed in conversations over the years without a clear understanding of the fundamental principles. In essence, when calling upon a patent lawyer in Sydney, you’re effectively attempting to protect and register an invention or conceptual process that can be considered new or useful improvement of an established entity.

This particular facet is quite open to interpretation and is typically approached case by case due to the overwhelming level of variability that can impact the nature of originality and potential ownership. The process of proving originality and sourcing the idea from concept to fruition can be long-winded and convoluted without adequate intellectual property law advice.

Our clients enjoy a faster and more efficient roadmap to ownership and approvals for their creative inventions which allows them to go to market faster, and without the worry of theft.

Copyright Lawyer In Sydney

Undoubtedly one of the more well-known facets of creative litigation and ownership. This is in reference to instances of authorship having a tangible legality with respect to the creation of art, music, writing, images etc. Simply put, if you have written or created something that you wish to register an ownership over, for instance, a book or film, you’d likely seek the assistance of a copyright lawyer in Sydney to ensure that the proper steps are taken by those who wish to repurpose or utilise your creative works.

Through the proper registration channels, you would have a say on how your work is used by others, and to what degree you will allow others to utilise your work. There are caveats relating to ‘Fair Use’ that can also be determined and explained by your Sultan Legal representative.

Trade Secrets

Another pillar of creative licensing and litigation is in what is known as Trade Secrets. This typically involves confidential corporate information that could ostensibly be considered a competitive edge if it were to find itself in the hands of competitors in any given endeavour. One of the more famous examples would be the recipe for KFC’s secret herbs and spices, or the formula for Coca-Cola – both of which would be considered to be trade secrets.

As with the previous examples we have noted, there is a lot of room for interpretation and proper protections of trade secrets should always be considered and supplemented with additional measures such as NDAs and designations of ‘Trade Secret’ in contractual arrangements.

Infringements & Defence

The proper registration of creative ownership is a key responsibility of any intellectual property lawyer in Sydney. Representation also extends far beyond the simple registration of these properties, in instances wherein there is a noticeable infringement or breach by another person on a client – a worthwhile IP lawyer in Sydney would step in.

When discussing ‘infringement’, it’s important to note that there are grey areas traipsed all through the industry, especially in cases of ‘fair use’. The wilful and unlawful use of your registered creation without adequate permission would typically indicate an infringement has occurred. In these cases, an adept intellectual property lawyer in Sydney will seek to engage in the correction of these infringements on behalf of their client to the best of thei ability.

This could be as simple as an infringement notice, filing for an injunction, or in more serious cases, seeking compensation in the courts of Australia. Following the intellectual property law advice from a competent solicitor will also lead you to garner a reputation as someone who is willing to defend their ownership and may deter future infringements from occurring.

The Sultan Legal Difference
