Domain Name is an essential requirement for a
business to market its products and services. Domain Name is the identity of a
business and is the key component of online marketing. It is the web address of
the business which customers access through internet. Domain Name is a
combination of letters and numbers paired with domain extension such as .net,
.com, etc. The very fact that Domain Names are registered internationally makes
them susceptible to disputes. A Domain Name law firm helps a business in
choosing the correct domain name and protects the domain name from
misappropriation and other disputes.
The attorneys of the legal firm represent
companies, domain owners, domain investors and startups for various cases under
Domain Dispute Law
and also provide other domain name related services. The various
