Domain & company name

The HLK team includes specialists in the acquisition and recovery of domain names. Different dispute resolution regimes are followed by different registrars and our attorneys and lawyers have successfully pursued many complaints before, for example, Nominet, WIPO and the Czech Arbitration Court.

We offer company name watching services to monitor the registration of conflicting company names and offer you an early warning of any problems.

Our team provides assistance in dealing with company name disputes, and frequently handle proceedings before the UK Company Names Tribunal, successfully requiring companies to adopt a new name.
