Our positioning

The APAC IP coordination partner for businesses and attorneys who can’t afford to get it wrong across borders

Wadeson operates at the intersection of technical depth and international reach. We work with engineering companies and creative brands who need an attorney who understands their technology or their market, not just the paperwork. For foreign attorney firms, we are the Australian end of a cross-border matter: reliable, responsive, and direct.

How we work

Senior-led, technically deep, internationally coordinated

Every matter is handled by an attorney who understands your technology and your commercial context. IP work that requires precision does not benefit from delegation to people who have not read the brief.

  • Technical depth: we read the drawings before we read the brief
  • Senior-led practice: the attorney drafting your claims is the one you spoke to
  • International reach: PCT, Madrid, Hague coordinated from a single point of contact
  • Speed when it matters: priority dates wait for no one
Our team

Belinda Wadeson, Founder & Principal

I am a registered patent and Trade Marks attorney in Australia and New Zealand, with deep expertise across patents, trade marks and IP strategy.

My technical expertise spans mechanical engineering, electrical systems, electromechanical systems, software and computer-implemented inventions, and precision manufacturing. I have particular depth in complex mechanical assemblies and trade mark prosecution globally.

I have assisted clients from industries including sport, food, media, fashion, entertainment, water, power generation, bulk material handling, mining, manufacturing and construction, with their rights around the world.

Clients and referrers trust me for my high quality, practical and relevant advice, and for my understanding of what matters most to my clients.

I hold a Master of Intellectual Property Law, Bachelor of Arts and a Bachelor of Engineering (Hons) from Monash University, and I am a Fellow of the Institute of Patent & Trade Marks Attorneys.

I have really valued her input and total professionalism over many years managing Monash University Engineering Faculty IP.
