  • ‘Hogan Lovells has a specialised global domain name practice run out of its Paris office (part of their global IPMT practice), that handles a significant volume of work for us.  To my knowledge this global domain name practice is unique. No other firm can compete with them in terms of the breadth and depth of their services and for industry knowledge. They are easily our preferred outside counsel and we trust them with our high value, time sensitive and mission critical domain name work.  ’

  • ‘Jane Seager is outstanding. She has an encyclopedic knowledge of domain name dispute procedures and case law which she brings to bear on a daily basis.

  • 'Jane always available to answer questions, provide advice, and to react to urgent matters. She is more than just an outside counsel; she is a commercially minded thought partner which makes her invaluable resource for her clients.'
