FIXED-FEE LEGAL SERVICES
Whether you’re an individual, small business or growing company, Brand Armour’s trademark specialists offer expert guidance and support for both South African and International trademark registrations.
Our transparent, fixed-fee pricing means you know exactly what you’ll pay, no hourly rates, no surprise costs.
National & International Trademark Registration
A brand can be a name, a slogan, or a logo (device). It identifies your goods or services and distinguishes them from the goods or services of others. It is the commercial magnet to which the goodwill of your business attaches and may go on to be worth many millions of Rands.
A trademark registration gives you exclusive rights of ownership in the brand and enables you to prevent 3rd parties from utilising the brand to your detriment. When you sell your business, a trademark adds value to your business and enables a significantly higher sale price.
Copyright Protection
Copyright safeguards your original creative works, from designs and written material to photos, music, and digital content.
Copyright is a very specialised and technical legal field, and you should approach us to ensure ownership of your copyrighted work.
We assist with copyright assignment, ownership, enforcement, and licensing through our panel of expert attorneys.
Patent Applications
A patent protects your invention or innovation, granting you exclusive rights to make, use, import, and sell it for a set period. This ensures your ideas are legally protected before you bring them to market or approach investors.
Patent applications are handled through our trusted panel of intellectual property specialists.
Legal Agreements
From copyright and trademark ownership, confidentiality and licensing agreements to partnership, franchise, and assignment contracts, having the right legal documents in place ensures your brand and business are protected at every stage.
All legal agreements are prepared by our panel of attorneys who specialise in commercial and IP law.
