Domain Names
Attendant to the explosion of E-commerce in recent years is the critical importance in protecting our clients' trademark rights as they pertain to the Internet and the rapidly evolving system of domain name governance. In view of the ever-present "cybersquatting" threat, our firm strives to alert our clients to the emergence of new generic top level domains ("GTLD's") and country-code top level domains ("CCTLDs") so that they may be in a position to secure such rights in the most expedient fashion possible. We also maintain our client's rights on our computer database in order to make certain that our client's domain name rights are properly and regularly maintained and renewed. Furthermore, our firm is one of the leaders in enforcing our client's trademark and domain name rights not only through traditional litigation fora, but also through quasi-governmental arbitration procedures such as the Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy ("UDRP") administered by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers ("ICANN").
