.law is a generic top level domain name (gTLD) for the legal industry proposed to the New gTLD Program of the Interet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers.
Current Applicants[edit | edit source]
- Top Level Domain Holdings (TLDH), one of 68 TLDs that the company applied for on its own behalf.[1]
- Radix- a subsidiary company of the Directi Group, which has applied for 31 new TLDs. The company partnered with ARI Registry Services to serve as back-end registry solutions provider.[2]
- STRAAT Investments, a holding company founded & chaired by Juan Diego Calle and the parent company of .co Internet is also interested to become the registry operator of .law. The domain name string is part of the 13 new gTLDs applied for by the company with ICANN. Neustar will provide the back-end registry solutions for the TLD.[3]
- Donuts (Corn Dynamite, LLC), one of 307 TLDs applied for by the company
- Famous Four Media (Silver Registry Limited)
- Merchant Law Group LLP
Radix[edit | edit source]
Radix received a GAC Early Warning as an entire applicant, where each one of the applicants was flagged by the U.S. Government. This seems to be the only time a portfolio applicant had all of their applications warned. The issue does not deal with the technical capabilities or thematic content of their applications, but rather the inclusion of an email address associated with the US' Federal Bureau of Investigation. It seems that Radix included correspondence with this address as a recommendation with each of their applications.[4]
