Brand & IP exists for one reason: to put a defensible number, the right ownership and the correct tax treatment on the assets your balance sheet usually carries at nothing.
We stay in our lane on purpose. Trademark clearance, filing and enforcement are legal services — only a registered trade marks attorney or lawyer may advise on them — so we arrange that work through an independent registered trade marks attorney and coordinate around it. Our in-house work — brand & IP valuation, R&D tax and IP tax structuring, and commercialisation, licensing and royalty accounting — is delivered by Local Knowledge Pty Ltd under a signed engagement.

Led by Graham Chee, a Fellow of CPA Australia — institutional valuation, tax and accounting standards applied to the intangible assets most practices leave off the page.
We point at the standards, not at competitors. Every recommendation maps to a named Act or accounting standard, and we promise reasonable assurance — never bulletproof protection or a guaranteed outcome.
Local Knowledge Pty Ltd is an established CPA public practice and registered tax agent — so your accounting, tax and bookkeeping can sit alongside the brand & IP work, deliberately joined up.
Operated by Local Knowledge Pty Ltd, part of the Local Knowledge group. Principal: Graham Chee, FCPA.
