Paul specialises in the creation, exploitation and enforcement of patents and enjoys working closely with clients in tailoring an IP Strategy to meet their business objectives.

Paul’s technical expertise is in chemical engineering, physical and process chemistry. He has a diverse client base, drawing on his capability and experience in handling a wide range of technologies, including building and construction products and systems, material separation, treatment and handling, metallurgy, food processing, medical equipment and process technology.

Paul also has industrial experience in environmental engineering, including water and wastewater treatment, with further experience in agricultural equipment and agri-chemicals, powder metallurgy and casting, blast furnaces, air conditioning and filtration systems, and electrolytic chemistry.

Paul has been identified by his peers and independent research as an IP Star from 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018.

Paul has also been recommended in the 2018 Intellectual Asset Management (IAM Patent 1000 2018) “The offices are staffed with crack prosecutors, from which Paul Harrison stands out; recently concluding a term as president of the Asian Patent Attorneys Association Australia Chapter, Harrison is ‘renowned for his robust engineering expertise’, though his talents are in demand among a broad heavy-industry following.”
