What is IP Infringement?

When your intellectual property – whether it’s a trade mark, registered design, copyright or other IP right– is utilised without your permission, it may constitute an infringement of your IP. If your rights have been infringed, there are a variety of legal remedies available including, injunctive relief, damages, account of profits, and delivery up or destruction or infringing material. In order to be able to access those remedies, it’s essential to have appropriate IP protections in place as these protections will give you the legal right to claim and access those remedies in the event of intellectual property infringement.

Since registration of IP can take a long time to finalise, applying for your rights close to the time of creation will make it far easier for you to enforce those rights when it’s needed. Determining whether IP infringement has occurred can often be legally complex and require an intricate understanding of the relevant statutory framework and common law interpretation of the relevant legal principles. If you’re looking to protect your IP the right way, or beleive that your rights may have been infringed, our experienced IP lawyer can work with you to help you accomplish your commercial objectives. We provide legal advice and guidance, assistance with resolution of IP infringements and disputes, and ensure you can protect your work from unauthorised use. We can also provide ongoing support, identify opportunities for IP protection or assist with identifying potential instances of infringement. Talk to us today for more information on our services.
