Domain Name Disputes

Domain Name Disputes - Griffith Hack

Disputes may arise where a third party has registered a domain name that incorporates a name in which another party claims to have rights. Often such domain names are registered to capitalize on potential consumer confusion. A number of options are available to challenge such domain name registrations with a view of either cancelling those registrations or having these transferred to the complainant. The most common option is an alternative dispute resolution procedure, whereby a dispute is adjudicated by a nominated alternative dispute provider. However, many options are available, which may achieve the desired result in a cost effective and expedient manner. Griffith Hack has extensive experience in all matters relating to domain names and maintains a specialised Domain Names Disputes Group dedicated to providing client’s with expert services in this field.
