Rhondalynn first used the mark in 2009 as the title of her excellent book on Financial Management. She then continued to successfully build her brand, speaking on stages to thousands of business owners including on behalf of MYOB , Intuit and nbn® Australia to name a few.

Defending the use of her Trade Mark from financial planner and “finfluencer” Canna Campbell these past two years has been an important and necessary step in protecting ownership of the products of her mind and intellect, known as Intellectual Property.

We await the decision from the Federal Circuit court, and represented her as the Applicant for four days at Trial before Judge Mansouradis, including cross examining the Respondent, influencer and prominent Financial Planner, Canne Campbell.
