UDRP & URS Domain Recovery
Challenge domains registered to exploit your trademark, impersonate your business, or divert branded traffic. AdFlagger assesses the case, organizes the evidence, coordinates the filing, and tracks the proceeding through resolution.
Transfer
The Domain Name Itself Can Be the Problem
Operational complaints can address particular content or behavior. A formal domain dispute may be appropriate when the registration itself trades on your trademark and continues to intercept demand.
Cybersquatting
A domain is registered or used to trade on the recognition of an established trademark.
Brand Impersonation
The domain creates a misleading connection with your company, product, or customer support.
Traffic Diversion
The registration captures branded searches and sends high-intent visitors to another destination.
Could UDRP or URS Fit Your Case?
A similar-looking domain is not enough on its own. A viable filing depends on documented rights, the registrant’s apparent interest, the use of the domain, and the remedy you need.
Documented trademark rights
The complainant can connect the relevant mark to the disputed domain.
Confusing similarity
The domain incorporates or closely imitates the protected brand.
No apparent legitimate interest
The available evidence does not show an authorized or legitimate basis for the use.
Evidence consistent with bad faith
The domain appears designed to impersonate, divert, monetize, disrupt, or exploit the trademark.
UDRP vs URS
Both procedures address qualifying abusive registrations, but the evidence threshold, available extensions, and outcomes differ.
UDRP
Usually the stronger route when the brand wants control of the domain or wants the registration cancelled.
- Potential transfer to the trademark owner
- Potential cancellation of the domain
- Structured written proceeding
- Suitable for a broader range of cybersquatting disputes
URS
A narrower procedure for clear-cut cases where suspension, rather than transfer, is the required outcome.
- Designed for straightforward violations
- Higher standard for a clear case
- Suspension instead of transfer
- Available only for covered domain extensions
Our Domain Dispute Process
We define the intended remedy before filing and keep the formal proceeding separate from ordinary website takedown work.
Assess the Case
Review the domain, trademark basis, current use, history, available procedure, and intended outcome.
Build the Record
Organize the relevant evidence and identify gaps or uncertainties that could affect the filing.
Coordinate Filing
Prepare and submit the case through the selected dispute procedure and manage required case steps.
Track the Outcome
Follow the proceeding, responses, decision, and implementation of the ordered remedy.
What the Proceeding Can Achieve
The selected procedure must match the result the brand actually needs. We clarify that choice during the initial assessment.
Domain Transfer
A successful proceeding may transfer the disputed domain to the trademark owner.
Domain Cancellation
The registration may be cancelled when transfer is not the requested remedy.
Domain Suspension
A successful URS proceeding suspends the domain for the applicable registration period.
Service Pricing
The final scope depends on the number of domains, the complexity of the evidence, and the selected proceeding.
Plus the applicable arbitration filing fee, from €800. The exact fee is confirmed before submission.
A Domain Case Connected to Its Business Impact
A disputed domain rarely exists in isolation. We assess the registration together with search visibility, impersonation, redirects, related domains, and the way branded demand is being intercepted.
This helps define whether a formal proceeding is appropriate, what evidence matters, and whether another enforcement route should be considered instead.
