Domain and Company Names
Secure names. Avoid disputes. Enforce rights.
A strong name creates visibility – a legally clean name creates security. Whether founding a company, creating a new Trademarks or launching a digital product: if you don’t protect your name early on, you risk expensive conflicts, warning letters or the loss of valuable domains.
We help companies and start-ups to set up their Company Names and domains correctly from the outset – legally viable, strategically well thought-out and conflict-proof. And if disputes do arise, we represent your interests efficiently: in court, before WIPO or in alternative Dispute Resolution Proceedings.
What counts is clarity: about rights, risks and your options for asserting your position.
What we can do for you
Names are legally tricky – especially when several parties make claims. We bring structure to uncertain situations, help you choose legally viable names and consistently represent your interests in the event of a conflict. Our approach: clear, solution-oriented and tried and tested – nationally and internationally.

Focus: International Domain Disputes
Domain conflicts don't stop at national borders - it's good to remain capable of acting beyond them.
Especially with generic top-level domains such as .com, .net or .org, disputes frequently arise over naming or trademark rights. In such cases, we represent our clients before the WIPO and other international Arbitration Boards – e.g. under the UDRP procedure.
Whether in Switzerland, Liechtenstein or worldwide: we bring legal clarity to domain conflicts and ensure a swift, strategically sound solution. Thanks to our global network of experienced IP firms, we are also legally secure in international proceedings – and remain your central point of contact.
Typical scenarios:
- Unauthorized use or registration of your Trademarks as a domain
- Disputes with domain holders in other jurisdictions
- Strategic domain takeovers for international rollouts
- Parallel advice in trademark and domain-related conflicts
