Which Best Describes You?
No matter which path you choose, you’ll get real legal strategy and the support you need to protect your IP like a pro.
Done-For-You Trade Mark
Registration
You’ve got enough on your plate. Let us handle the entire trade mark process, from name checks to final filing, so you can focus on growing your brand while we handle the legal legwork.
Here’s what’s included in your package:
Free initial viability check
(1 class)
We start with a complimentary high-level review to check for any obvious conflicts with your proposed trade mark. This is a quick surface check, not a substitute for a detailed search, and helps flag any immediate red flags before moving forward. Obligation free, no charge.
Detailed viability research and report
✓ If things look promising, we proceed with a comprehensive trade mark search and strategy build.
✓ This phase includes:
✓A detailed search of the IP register for your chosen class
✓Tailored legal feedback on viability, risks, and recommendations
✓Creation of your Specification Report with goods/services breakdown
✓A recorded video explainer walking you through the full strategy
This is the core of our work, and where we ensure your application is properly positioned and classed.
Want to register under more than one class? Additional classes are available for an added fee, we’ll confirm and quote this in advance
Application Filing + Monitoring
Once you’ve approved the specs, we handle the full filing process with IP Australia.
We’ll:
✓ Submit your trade mark
✓ Manage all correspondence
✓ Monitor the progress
✓ Keep you informed every step of the way
Investment:
$1999 + GST + Government Fees
(Standard pricing covers 1 class; additional classes quoted separately.)
Multiple trade marks to register? We offer bundle discounts, book a consult and we’ll tailor your quote.
Important to Know:
Trade mark registration is never a guaranteed outcome, even with the strongest prep. There are many variables outside anyone’s control, including the decisions of the assigned IP Examiner. What we do guarantee is a robust application, backed by legal expertise, clear communication, and strategic class selection.
This is ideal if:
✓ You want expert eyes on your trade mark from day one
✓ You’d rather delegate the process to a professional
✓ You value peace of mind and legal clarity from start to finish
Want to DIY with Legal Support?
If you want to take charge of your own trade mark application without rookie mistakes, this is for you.
Tricks of the Trade Mark® is a lawyer-created, step-by-step course designed for online businesses, creatives, course creators and coaches to confidently navigate the trade mark process from idea to application.
It’s not just information. It’s a practical, strategic system designed to help you take action with support built in.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
✓ How to check if your brand name, logo or slogan is actually available
✓ The difference between business names, trade marks, and domain names
✓ How to choose the right class, and what happens if you don’t
✓ What IP Australia looks for (and how to avoid getting rejected)
✓ The exact steps to file your own trade mark application, without confusion
investment:
$399 AUD (incl. GST)
INCLUDES
✓ Lifetime access to the full course
✓ 1 month of Marki™ access (your legal chatbot assistant)
✓ 1 month inside the Legally Legit Lounge® (templates, tools + Q&A)
Want ongoing access?
and your $399 course fee is fully credited.
Why pay $6K when you can learn it once for $399?
Hiring a lawyer to file just one trade mark application can cost you $2K+. Got multiple names, products or logos to protect? You're looking at $6K or more in legal fees.
With this course, you’ll learn the entire process once, and reuse it every time you file.
Perfect for:
✓ Founders with multiple brands, product lines or course names
✓ Designers, creators and agency owners protecting IP for different projects
✓ Startups planning ahead for future launches
This is for you if:
✓ You want to understand how to legally protect your brand without blowing thousands upfront
✓ You’re just starting out and know the smartest investment is the one that protects your IP from day one
✓ You prefer to learn and take control, but want a lawyer-built system to guide you
✓ You’re not quite ready for Done-For-You, but still want guidance from a lawyer
✓ Your launching multiple offers and want to file trade marks again in future
✓ You want tools, support, and clarity (not confusion and Google rabbit holes)

Frequently asked questions
A registered trade mark gives you exclusive rights to use that brand element, like your business name, logo, or course title, within a specific category (called a “class”).
It’s the only way to stop others from copying or registering something similar.
Nope. A business name doesn’t give you ownership.
It’s just a registration with ASIC, not legal protection. To actually own and enforce your brand, you need a trade mark.
We handle the entire process:
✓ Free initial high-level search (1 class)
✓ Detailed viability search + strategy
✓ Specification Report with video breakdown
✓ Full application filing + IP Australia monitoring
✓ Support if objections are raised (additional fees may apply)
You only pay for what’s relevant. No fluff, no guesswork.
Our standard Done-For-You service includes 1 class.
If you need more, we’ll quote you upfront. Each class adds complexity and cost, so we’ll guide you on whether it’s necessary.
No, no lawyer or service can guarantee registration.
There are too many variables, including decisions made by the IP Examiner.
What we can guarantee:
✓ We’ll do a thorough viability check
✓ We’ll prepare your strongest possible application
