Digital business models combine contracts, branding and platform regulation. We advise operators and business users on terms, advertising, domain conflicts and online infringements.
How we help
- B2B and B2C terms, digital services, information duties and accessibility.
- Marketplace terms, account suspensions, DSA procedures and notice-and-action.
- Domain disputes, name rights, social media accounts, advertising and reputation protection.
A practical example
A merchant account is suspended following a trade mark complaint. Assessment covers the alleged infringement, the platform’s reasons, complaint mechanisms, provenance evidence and possible court action.
What the assessment covers
We start with the intended outcome, the parties involved and the applicable territories. The next step is to examine the documents and evidence, identify deadlines and compare the available contractual or procedural options. The scope of work and fees are agreed before substantive work begins.
Documents for the first discussion
Platform messages, terms, URLs, screenshots, provenance evidence and registration details.
What if a deadline is already running?
Please give the exact deadline and send the relevant correspondence when making contact. Do not assume that an enquiry alone creates a retainer or that a deadline is being monitored.
