About Graham
Graham joined POF in 1975, heralding the beginning of a long and successful career. He achieved his professional registration as a Patent and Trade Marks Attorney in 1978 and, as a key member of our Engineering team, Graham honed his patent specification drafting skills working extensively with Australian-based clients.
Graham joined the Partnership in 1985 and in 2005 his leadership capabilities were recognised through his appointment as Managing Partner of the POF Group. In 2012 Graham became the President of the Institute of Patent and Trade Mark Attorneys of Australia (IPTA), providing a valued leadership contribution to the continued strength of the profession in Australia.
