Domain Name Services

Domain Name services

With the issues related to their use becoming ever more closely aligned with those of trade mark registration, domain names are now an integral part of any Intellectual Property portfolio.

At A.A.Thornton & Co., we offer specialist expertise covering all aspects of domain name management. This includes general advice on the selection of domain names and filing strategies.

Domain Name Searches

We explore whether suitable or desirable domain names are available for registration, either on a UK- or worldwide-basis.

Domain Name Registration

Our services include single- and multiple-name registrations across a wide range of jurisdictions.

Domain Name Portfolio Management

Our ongoing management service ensures good practice and easy maintenance. It includes the consolidation of all existing domain name registrations into a single portfolio.

Domain Name Dispute Resolution

We undertake negotiations with existing owners to seek an amicable resolution prior to formal proceedings being initiated. This includes successful challenges to domain names owned by ‘cyber squatters’.
