DOMAIN NAME ESCROW SERVICES

If you are negotiating an important domain name acquisition or transfer, most parties prefer to involve an experienced domain name attorney to conduct the transaction.  We facilitate domain name transfers by acting as the third party escrow to insure that the domain transfer properly occurs without fraud. Typically, the funds used to purchase the domain name will be transferred to a special account held in trust.  We hold the funds until we receive the authorization code from the seller of the domain. As such, both parties can rest assured that they received the domain and the funds without the occurrence of fraud.

Why is it necessary to use an escrow agent?  Just as its important to use an escrow service in the purchase of real estate, it is important to use an escrow attorney familiar with the process of domain name transfers.  Often it is difficult to verify information about the seller or buyer.  In worst case scenarios, one of the parties may not delivery and/or steal the domain name or money.  Use of a third party domain name escrow lawyer will prevent that scenario.  Further, our firm of domain name attorneys can conduct background checks of the domain to determine if the seller is in fact the owner of the domain name, and if the domain name is subject to any trademark or copyright  litigation.
