There is no surer way to create jobs and wealth than by the commercialisation of new ideas anchored on a strong intellectual property foundation.Chris Baxter - Managing Director, Patent & Trade Mark Attorney
Chris specialises in strategic, cross-jurisdictional intellectual property advice on complex patent portfolios and dispute matters. He acts for multinationals, ASX listed companies, university spin-outs and a wide variety of SMEs. Chris has broad technological experience spanning, in particular: medtech, defence, software and aerospace inventions.
Uniquely, alongside providing strategic IP advice, Chris has founded, accelerated, mentored and invested in dozens of tech startups.

I did interact with a few patent attorneys and this one kept in contact while also made contact available through a mutual facebook startup group! As a designer, Chris (Baxter) also refereed me to some appropriate clients and I really value that sort of networking.

Had a complicated name to trade mark, Chris and Barry were insane in terms of advice and paths to take. Have since used them for product patents and same experience, just awesome. Would definitely recommend.

If this is your first stop while looking for trademark or patent services, I am sure it will be your last stop too. Joanne and Chris are excellent with helping their customers and providing the needed guidance and explanations, and answers to customer's questions.
