The Internet is an integral part of most clients’ business models, and quality legal representation in the areas of electronic content and domain name protections is now a critical need.
Domain name protection works hand-in-hand with trademark protection. Under the Lanham Act, trademark holders have a cause of action against anyone who, with a bad faith intent to profit from the goodwill of another’s trademark, registers, traffics in, or uses a domain name in bad faith that is identical to, or confusingly similar to, a distinctive mark.
McHale | Slavin also regularly represents clients in the quasi-judicial arbitration actions established for the redress of domain name conflicts. Contact us for additional information or to schedule a consultation.
