BARUN IP & LAW is IP law firm dedicated to protecting the online territories of corporations, backed by unrivaled expertise demonstrated through more than 1,700 domain name dispute cases and a collaborative network with domestic and international dispute resolution institutions.

From comprehensive consulting for securing trademarks, designs, and patents to preemptive domain name registration and defensive acquisition strategies in Korea and abroad, BARUN IP & LAW provides tailored intellectual property protection solutions aligned with each company’s business direction and target markets.

In particular, based on its cooperation and working relationships with the Korea Internet & Security Agency (KISA) and the Asian Domain Name Dispute Resolution Centre (ADNDRC), BARUN IP & LAW has established a system capable of responding swiftly to domestic and international domain name disputes. From trademark acquisition and domain name preemption strategies to online infringement monitoring, UDRP proceedings, and Korean domain name dispute resolution procedures, we provide comprehensive solutions for protecting corporate brands online.

Drawing on the expertise of Managing Patent Attorney Ho Hyun Nam, who has directly written more than 1,700 international domain name dispute decisions, BARUN IP & LAW accurately analyzes the key issues in domain name disputes and presents differentiated strategies for successful dispute resolution.

Through its cooperation and working relationships with Korea Internet & Security Agency (KISA) and Asian Domain Name Dispute Resolution Centre (ADNDRC), BARUN IP & LAW responds to domestic and international domain name disputes swiftly and efficiently.

Where confusingly similar domain names are discovered, or where domain names are being misused for cybersquatting or other abusive purposes, we provide practical solutions for the transfer, cancellation, or suspension of infringing domain names. Our services cover Korean domain name dispute resolution proceedings as well as UDRP proceedings for major gTLDs such as .com and .net, and key ccTLDs including .kr, .eu, and .ai.

Through ongoing monitoring, BARUN IP & LAW promptly identifies confusingly similar domain names, unauthorized online use of trademarks, infringements on open markets, social media, and app stores, as well as search advertising keyword infringements. We minimize brand damage through immediate first-response measures.

In addition to recovering domain names through UDRP and Korean domain name dispute resolution procedures, BARUN IP & LAW builds a multi-layered defense system covering both Korea and overseas markets by combining platform takedown reports, cease-and-desist letters, trademark infringement actions, and border/customs protection services.

BARUN IP & LAW carefully reviews the identity or confusing similarity between trademarks and domain names, the absence of the registrant’s rights or legitimate interests, and whether the domain name was registered and used in bad faith. Based on this analysis, we pursue the transfer or cancellation of infringing domain names and, where necessary, provide comprehensive support for infringement cessation requests, settlement negotiations, and civil or criminal legal actions.
