Did you know you could be infringing a patent just by importing a product into your business—even if you’re not selling it?
In this episode of Legal Tips for Business Owners, I break down what patents actually protect, how infringement works, and why simply using an imported product in your business could land you in legal hot water.
Here’s what I cover:
What a patent is – and how it protects the way something works or is made (not just how it looks).
Why importing can infringe – even if you’re only using the product inside your business.
What really matters – the claims of the patent, not what the product looks like.
Real-world stories – clients who were shocked to find themselves sued for patent infringement after importing equipment for their own use.
What you can do – from quick Google Patents searches to seeking expert IP advice before you import.
If you’re thinking about importing products for your business, make sure you understand the risks. A little due diligence now can save you from a costly lawsuit later.
Need tailored advice? Get in touch with me to make sure your business is protected.

It can be tempting to take a shortcut in business and copy what someone else is doing. But copying isn’t just lazy—it’s legally risky, and it can cost you big time.
In this week’s Legal Tip, I break down why you should avoid copying and what the law really says.
Why the “10% Rule” is a myth
The substantial part test in copyright law
Other legal risks beyond copyright:
Misleading or deceptive conduct
Passing off
Design infringement
Trade mark infringement
The real risks of copying, including:
Injunctions that can stop you selling immediately
Damages or account of profits (going back up to six years)
Why originality and creativity are the real keys to lasting success
Do your own thing. Be original. Put your creativity, energy, and love into your products. That’s how you build a business that’s both legally safe and uniquely yours.
In this week’s episode, Ange and Peta discuss Ange’s plans for the Sydney Marathon which is happening in 2 weeks on 31 August.
But Ange’s prep has been marred by illness and work stress. Will she be ready?
