Baxter IP – Excellence in International Intellectual Property

Baxter IP are Australian Patent Attorneys, and one of the fastest growing patent attorney firms in Australia, with to a team of 4 experienced Australian patent attorneys, 2 patent engineers and a patent licensing consultant handling primarily local client work in the engineering & medical fields.

Baxter IP’s focus on growing its portfolio of Australian patent clients is leading to more and more opportunities to send matters to our foreign patent attorney associates. As a relatively young firm, we are still in the process of consolidating reciprocity-based relationships with foreign patent attorney firms, so if your clients patent in australia and we haven’t yet had a chance to meet, let’s arrange a meeting at the next international IP conference.
