That means reading your technical documentation, asking the right questions, and drafting claims that genuinely reflect the inventive contribution. OUR PROCESS ## From provisional to granted patent In patent law, priority is determined by who files first. Once a competitor files for a similar invention, your window closes. We work quickly without compromising claim quality. - Initial consultation to assess patentability and scope - Prior art search and freedom-to-operate analysis - Provisional patent application (secures priority date) - Full specification drafting with your engineering team - National and PCT international filings - Examination management and response strategy - Grant and maintenance through the patent term RECENT RESULT ## BLDC motor control system: granted EP patent in 14 months Client: Series B industrial automation company.

We protect it in Australia, New Zealand, and internationally, from clearance through to registration and renewal. - 25yr — Trade mark practice - 50+ — Jurisdictions filed - 7 — Nice classes routine - AU · NZ — + Madrid Protocol WHAT WE DO ## From clearance to registered mark A trade mark registration is only as strong as the clearance search that preceded it and the specification of goods and services that defines its scope. We search thoroughly, draft specifications that give you room to grow, and manage prosecution through to registration, including examiner objections and opposition proceedings if they arise. For businesses with brands in multiple markets, we coordinate international filings through the Madrid Protocol: one brief, one point of contact, multiple jurisdictions. OUR PROCESS ## A clear four-step prosecution path Clearance, application, examination, registration: each step with a defined deliverable and timeline so the brand owner is never guessing where their mark stands. - 01. Clearance search: AU register, common law use, and domain registrations. Written opinion before any application is filed - 02. Application filing: drafted goods and services specification. Priority date secured from filing - 03. Examination & acceptance: examiner correspondence and objections managed - 04. Registration & maintenance: 10-year registration, renewal management, portfolio monitoring > "Belinda’s approach to the offending party was very professional, direct, and firm.

Your IP is too important to wait → Start with a free clearance assessment (/contact) --- # Designs URL: https://wadeson.com.au/designs SERVICE # Designs Registration A registered design protects the visual appearance of a product: shape, configuration, pattern, or ornamentation. The fastest form of IP protection available, and one of the most commercially effective for product businesses, industrial designers, and fashion brands. - AU · NZ — Jurisdictional reach - < 1mo — Typical registration - 6 — Classes commonly filed - 25yr — Designs experience WHAT WE DO ## Protecting the visual appearance of your product A registered design gives you the exclusive right to use the visual features of your product. Unlike a patent, you do not need a technical invention, only that the appearance is new and distinctive. This makes it available to a much broader range of products, from furniture and homewares to packaging, industrial equipment, and fashion accessories. Important: file before you publish. Once a product is publicly disclosed, the opportunity to register may be lost. We recommend filing before any trade fair, social media launch, or product release. WHAT DESIGNS PROTECTION COVERS ## Shape, surface, packaging, and the screen Registered designs cover three-dimensional form, surface ornamentation, packaging, and screen-based product appearance. We help product teams decide what is worth registering and in what order. - Shape & configuration: three-dimensional form of the product - Pattern & ornamentation: surface decoration applied to the product - Packaging & containers: visual appearance of the packaging itself - Fashion & accessories: jewellery, apparel, footwear, accessories - Industrial products: equipment, tools, components, systems - Screen & UI designs: icons, UI elements, screen-based products > "Belinda’s designs advice was practical and commercial.

We run UDRP complaints for generic TLDs and auDRP complaints for the .au namespace, and defend against them when a registration of yours is challenged. - UDRP — .com · .net · .org · gTLDs - auDRP — .com.au · .net.au · .au - 2–4mo — Typical decision window - Transfer — Or cancellation, no damages WHAT WE DO ## Recover the domain, or defend the one you hold Cybersquatting, typosquatting, and bad-faith registrations of brand-adjacent domains are a routine cost of building a recognisable name online. The administrative dispute regimes (UDRP for generic top-level domains and auDRP for the .au namespace) were designed to resolve these matters faster and far more cheaply than court proceedings. We act for complainants pursuing transfer of an infringing domain, and for respondents defending a registration that has been challenged. The remedy is always the same: transfer or cancellation of the domain. There are no monetary damages, no injunctions, and no costs orders, which is precisely why the process is quick. UDRP VS AUDRP ## Two regimes, one practical difference that changes the strategy Both regimes ask the same three-part question (identity or confusing similarity, rights or legitimate interests, and bad faith) but they combine the second and third elements differently. Under UDRP the complainant must prove the domain was both registered and used in bad faith. Under auDRP the complainant only needs to prove bad-faith registration or bad-faith use. That single word makes auDRP materially easier for Australian brand owners pursuing .au domains. - UDRP covers generic TLDs (.com, .net, .org, new gTLDs). Filed with WIPO, the Forum, or another ICANN-accredited provider. Conjunctive test: bad-faith registration AND use - auDRP covers the .au namespace (.com.au, .net.au, .org.au, direct .au). Filed with an auDA-approved provider. Disjunctive test: bad-faith registration OR use - Both share a three-element test, a remedy limited to transfer or cancellation, decisions made on the papers (no hearing), and a typical timeline of 2–4 months from filing to decision - Standing under UDRP and auDRP both require the complainant to show trade mark rights (registered or, in many cases, unregistered/common-law rights established by use) WHEN A DISPUTE IS THE RIGHT TOOL ## And when it is not Administrative complaints work best where the registration is plainly opportunistic: a misspelling of your mark, a domain offered for sale at an inflated price, a parked page running pay-per-click ads against your brand, or a site impersonating yours. Where the respondent has a credible commercial use predating your rights, a UDRP or auDRP panel is unlikely to order transfer, and court proceedings or commercial negotiation may be the better path. We assess the merits before filing. A failed complaint is not just a cost. Under both regimes a panel can make a finding of Reverse Domain Name Hijacking against a complainant that knew, or should have known, the complaint could not succeed. OUR PROCESS ## A clear path from first contact to decision Most matters resolve within four months of instruction. Many resolve sooner, because a well-drafted cease-and-desist often produces a voluntary transfer before a formal complaint is filed. - 01 Assessment: WHOIS lookup, evidence capture of the offending use, review of your trade mark rights, written merits opinion and indicative cost - 02 Pre-complaint contact: where appropriate, a cease-and-desist or transfer demand to the registrant. A meaningful proportion resolve at this step - 03 Complaint filing: drafted complaint with annexures, lodged with the appropriate UDRP or auDRP provider; filing fee paid to the provider - 04 Response & decision: respondent has 20 days (UDRP) or 20 days (auDRP) to respond; panel typically appointed and decision issued within 4–6 weeks of response close - 05 Implementation: on a transfer order, we liaise with the registrar to effect transfer to your nominated registrant account ## Someone has registered your brand as a domain?

We read the drawings before we read the brief. - 340+ — IP matters filed - 7 — Industry sectors - AU · NZ — + direct national filings - 25yr — Technical patent experience AREAS OF TECHNICAL EXPERTISE ### Mechanical Subsea oil and gas equipment, downhole tools, well intervention apparatus, flow control, and oilfield mechanical hardware. We claim apparatus and method independently to survive design-arounds. **Case example:** Subsea well intervention apparatus, AU granted. Apparatus and method claimed independently; method claim protects the operating principle regardless of future geometry changes. ### Electrical Building climate and energy systems, HVAC, membrane-based energy exchange, liquid desiccant air delivery, and heat exchange assemblies. Multi-application portfolios protecting a platform at component, system, and method level. **Case example:** Membrane energy exchange platform: coordinated family of AU applications covering the assembly, the heat exchange method, the desiccant control system, and the evaporative cooling variant separately. ### Software Computer-implemented inventions, distributed SaaS architectures, control algorithms, and predictive systems. Claims drafted at the technical-improvement-to-a-technical-system level to survive Alice-style scrutiny. **Case example:** Distributed microservices cache invalidation protocol: AU and PCT filing with method claims focused on the technical effect, not the abstract idea. ### Mining Rock drilling equipment, ore processing systems, centrifugal concentrators, slurry sampling, wear monitoring, and underground mining hardware. 25 years working with Australian mining equipment manufacturers. **Case example:** Batch centrifugal concentrator bowl, AU granted. Apparatus claims cover the bowl geometry; method claims cover the concentration process independently. Gekko Systems Pty Ltd. ### Automation Industrial control systems, robotic assemblies, sensor networks, and process automation hardware. Apparatus claims paired with method claims to protect the operational sequence as well as the device. **Case example:** Closed-loop materials handling controller: apparatus and method claimed in parallel; method survives substitution of the underlying actuator hardware. ### FPGA Programmable logic architectures, signal-processing pipelines, hardware-accelerated algorithms, and configurable compute systems. Claims targeted to the architectural innovation rather than a specific silicon process. **Case example:** FPGA-based real-time vision pipeline: claims structured around the pipeline architecture so the patent survives migration between FPGA families. > "Belinda is a technically excellent attorney who can not only do an excellent job but work with you to achieve the commercial outcome you need.

We understand that device claims require precision on both the technical and regulatory dimensions. - 47+ — Medical device applications - 25yr — Devices experience - AU · NZ — + Madrid + PCT - Class I/II — Regulatory-aware drafting AREAS OF TECHNICAL EXPERTISE ### Surgical instruments Powered and manual surgical tools, minimally invasive instruments, robotic-assisted systems, and related disposables. Claims drafted to protect the mechanical innovation and the operating method independently. **Case example:** Pneumatic surgical instrument: apparatus and method claimed separately. The inventive step was in the timing and pressure control sequence; the method claim protects it independent of the physical configuration. ### Diagnostic apparatus Point-of-care testing devices, imaging systems, optical diagnostic tools, biosensors, and laboratory analysis equipment. Device, method, and assay claimed as three separately patentable layers. **Case example:** Optical diagnostic system for ophthalmic surgery: AU filings covering the imaging apparatus and the surgical guidance method as independent claims. ### Drug delivery Inhalers, auto-injectors, infusion systems, transdermal delivery devices, and implantable systems. Apparatus claims protect the physical mechanism; method claims protect the delivery sequence or dosing protocol. **Case example:** Respiratory mask with modified delivery system: apparatus claims covering the mask and valve assembly; method claims covering the therapeutic delivery sequence independently. ### Digital health & HealthTech Remote patient monitoring, clinical decision support software, telehealth platforms, and AI-assisted diagnostics. Software-implemented medical inventions require claims describing a specific technical improvement to a specific technical system. **Case example:** On-site diagnostic system: AU filing covering the data processing method and classification algorithm as independent claims, protecting the method regardless of the underlying model architecture. ### Medical imaging Ultrasound, OCT, MRI-compatible devices, and image acquisition and processing systems. Claims structured at apparatus, method, and algorithm level. **Case example:** OCT-guided surgical system: apparatus and method claims coordinated, with the method claim structured to survive hardware substitution as the imaging platform evolved. ### Health infrastructure Hospital equipment, patient monitoring systems, clinical environment hardware, sterilisation and infection control systems, and connected medical device platforms. **Case example:** Modular monitoring system for clinical environments: coordinated AU and PCT filing covering the hardware architecture and alert-management method as independent claims. > "Belinda’s drafting protected the commercial scope, not just the embodiment.
