Protecting your brand online is important. We have extensive experience of obtaining the transfer of domain names improperly registered by third parties.
Our team has a good record of resolving domain name disputes informally, with the registrant agreeing to transfer the domain name. However, occasionally it is necessary to file formal complaints, for example, under the Nominet Dispute Resolution Service (DRS) or the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) at the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO). We have an excellent record of obtaining the transfer of domain names in such cases.
We also assist with issues specific to new generic top-level domains (gTLDs), such as the Trade Mark Clearing House and the new Uniform Rapid Suspension (URS) Procedure.
PIPCU liaison
