Art and law come together in composition for Roanne De Menezes.

“I have always been interested in intellectual property law. I love seeing a creative concept become a valuable commercial asset, and am passionate about commercialising and protecting that creativity.

I particularly appreciate the breadth of work that trade mark law encompasses. I enjoy seeing changes in the law as markets and branding evolve. Trade marks have always fascinated me.”

I AM: Energetic and enthusiastic

Title: Senior Associate, Lawyer/Trade Marks Attorney

Qualifications: LLB (Hons) / BA

I completed an Arts degree and a Law degree at university. When I commenced legal practice, I was naturally pulled toward trade marks and related rights. That became the focus of my legal practice in my early years, so I later undertook studies to become qualified as a Registered Trade Marks Attorney.

I have successfully managed large multi-national trade mark portfolios for a number of clients across many industries. This includes clearing initial brand concepts for launch, prosecuting trade marks internationally, conducting contentious matters, drafting of related agreements and providing strategic advice.

I understand the importance of building successful working relationships, and enjoy working closely with my clients and colleagues.
