Reservation of a domain name

The Internet domain name is the address of your Internet site. It is a distinctive sign, just like the commercial name or sign of a company.

As such, and by virtue of being a name for a business purpose, it should not infrige rights acquired by a third party.

Before a domain name is reserved, an availability search must be made, not only amongst Internet domain names but also with respect to other rights (trademarks, company names, commercial names, and signs among others).

Once the domain name has been reserved, it is advisable to set up an automatic watch so that you can know when an identical or similar potentially rival domain name is reserved. Our Firm assist you for the reservation of a domain name and its legal managment.
