An organization may be entitled to a domain name
that another party may have already registered. Patel & Almeida
has an excellent track record in successfully disputing domain name
registrations for our client's, including conducting Domain Name
Dispute Resolution cases before the World Intellectual Property
Office.
Most types of trademark-based domain-name
disputes must be resolved by agreement, court action, or arbitration
before a registrar will cancel, suspend, or transfer a domain name
under the Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP).
Disputes alleged
to arise from abusive registrations of domain names (for example,
cybersquatting) may be addressed by expedited administrative proceedings
that the holder of trademark rights initiates by filing a complaint
with an approved dispute-resolution service provider.
