Domain names
Companies are finding it increasingly difficult to manage their
domain names while keeping track of potential infringements of
their IP rights on the internet, and then to combat such abuse.
We have developed a programme for actively monitoring and taking
action against the unauthorised use of your trade marks and domain
names on the internet.
Our programme saves you both time and money and provides one
point of contact for all services relating to the online protection
of your valuable IP rights. Our experience shows that the quality
of advice is improved when one provider has the full overview of a
company’s complete range of internet IP-related activities.
Monitoring
We offer a monitoring service so that infringements of your IP
rights on the internet can be tracked using some of the best
developed internet intelligence technology in the industry. We will
tailor our monitoring service to meet your particular needs.
Enforcement
We provide enforcement services to advise you how to stop online
infringement of their IP rights and how to take proportionate
action and proactive steps to minimise any abuse in the future.
We have advised on numerous domain name disputes for clients
across a wide range of sectors and industries. Our experience
covers various different dispute resolution procedures including:
UDRP (for generic top level domains such as .com and .net);
Nominet’s DRS (for .uk top level domains) and EURid’s ADR (for .eu
top level domains). We were successful in obtaining the
cancellation of a .pro top level domain, in one of the first
decisions relating to the .pro suffix.
We also have a wide range of experience in all types on online
infringement of rights in relation to infringing content (including
take-downs via the US Digital Millennium Act) and the sale of
counterfeit goods on the internet.
Once infringements have been identified, through our enforcement
process, we have the capability to ensure they are dealt with
efficiently in accordance with the client’s policies. Our extensive
experience across all areas of intellectual property infringement
enables us to provide an all-encompassing service.
