Domain Names are actually addresses on the Internet. In fact, they are also signs such as trademarks or company names. We advise on every aspect of domain names, from the evaluation process through to the enforcement of your rights in relation to these signs.

We assist in developing an appropriate strategy for your signs which typically consist of the domain name, company name and trademarks.

We register domain names on your behalf and administer them using our computerised domain name administration system – you can rely on us to handle the renewals of your valuable domain names.

The targeted monitoring of domain names (both in Switzerland and abroad) allows us to advise in advance of any possible conflicts relating to signs. If necessary, we initiate suitable legal measures.

Domain names can be assigned in Switzerland and abroad. We assist in both preparing and acquiring the necessary agreements and other documents whilst also ensuring that assignments are recorded at the relevant register organisations.

If a domain name is (also) to be used by third parties or if you wish to use the domain name belonging to a third party, we draw up the necessary licensing agreements.

Domain name disputes can often be resolved by reaching a settlement and we assist in negotiating these types of agreement.

If third parties infringe domain names or associated agreements or if you are alleged to have committed a corresponding infringement, we will litigate on your behalf before the public ordinary courts and at any arbitration tribunals. Our network of associates around the world enables us to coordinate international disputes.
