Intellectual property lawyers protect brands, inventions and creative work. Trade marks are registered with CIPC under the Trade Marks Act 194 of 1993, while copyright in South Africa arises automatically under the Copyright Act 98 of 1978. IP lawyers help register rights, enforce them and draft licence agreements.
Company registrations, trade marks and patents are filed with the CIPC online, so a firm anywhere in the country can handle them. Contract disputes go to the magistrate's court or the High Court depending on the amount. The High Court for Roodepoort is the Gauteng Division of the High Court, which sits in Johannesburg (about 18 km away).
No. Copyright exists automatically once qualifying work is created. Trade marks, patents and designs do need registration to be fully protected.
Trade mark applications at CIPC can take a long time, often more than a year, so it is worth applying early.
