Trusted by organisations featured on our partners banner — including Juvo Healthcare, General Dynamics Ordinance and Tactical Systems, Ozito Industries, BYD, Nick Scali, De'Longhi, Thomas Global, Carlsberg Group, UNSW Founders, Boss Agriculture, Sea Transport, A&I Coatings and Secure Code Warrior — we develop patent strategies that protect R&D, unlock commercial value and de‑risk international expansion.
Advising IP-Driven Businesses
Baxter IP counsels established and early stage businesses that leverage patents for commercial competitiveness and market leadership. We provide precision drafting, efficient filing, and strategic prosecution tailored for products and applications.
Companies with active R&D pipelines
We streamline the capture and protection of innovation across your pipeline, drafting applications that create layered defenses for product ecosystems. This translates R&D investment into enforceable IP that blocks commercial competitors and unlocks licensing as a commercialisation option.
Australian businesses planning international expansion into the US, EU, or Asia-Pacific
Leveraging your Australian or New Zealand filing as a foundation, we coordinate international IP protection to safeguard geographical product expansion, utilising procedures strategically for speed, cost-efficiency or to maximise IP coverage.
Scale-ups preparing for investment or acquisition that require defensible patent portfolios
We build a robust portfolio through strategic patent applications that clearly articulate inventive step according to problem/solution methodology. By focusing on enforceable claims aligned with your growth trajectory, we help turn IP into a compelling asset for funding success or acquisition appeal.
Businesses outsourcing design or manufacturing overseas needing enforceable protection
To create readily enforceable protection in manufacturing regions, such as in China, Thailand or Vietnam, we utilise tactical applications such as utility models and registered designs. This proactive protection reduces risks of IP theft, maintains supply chain integrity, and supports contractual leverage with partners.
In-house legal teams needing fast and accurate patent drafting, filing, and prosecution support
We act as a seamless extension of your team, we handle complex drafting and prosecution to complement your internal capabilities.
Patent as the Bedrock of Enforceable, Value-Generating IP
Inartful drafting or mishandled filings can erode IP value and unnecessarily expose innovation to challenges by third parties. In contrast, our precise, commercially-informed applications establish strong foundations for long-term leverage in competitive markets, investments, and partnerships.
We draft enforceable patent applications leaning on our technology specialties
Our specialists in defence, aerospace, physics, med-tech, engineering, electrical, chemistry, and ICT bring backgrounds from IP Australia and in-house roles, enabling tailored drafting within your field. This depth secures broader, more resilient coverage.
We handle global patent portfolios cost-efficiently.
We manage filings end-to-end and prosecution across jurisdictions, optimising PCT outcomes to prepare patent families for national and regional phase entry. We make strategic use of various international patent systems such as the European Patent with Unitary Patent effect, Eurasian Patent Convention, ARIPO and OAPI regional systems to deliver cost-effective broad coverage while ensuring compliance with local requirements. We also leverage accelerated examination programs such as the Patent Prosecution Highway (PPH), when appropriate, to optimise patent prosecution sequencing.
We utilise local protection and enforcement mechanisms to secure designs in overseas manufacturing markets
For overseas production, we integrate design patents and utility models into our strategy, fortifying against replication in higher-risk geographies. In working with trusted overseas partners who can manage administrative, civil and criminal actions locally, your supply chain is safeguarded.
We anticipate Examiner objections and streamline prosecution
Leveraging insights from ex-IP Australia Examiners and in-house experience, we pre-empt common prosecution issues with careful drafting to expedite examination and reduce iterations. In this way, Baxter IP offers a more efficient path to enforceable rights, aligning with tight commercial schedules.
