Services Offered

Mediation

A trained independent Mediator will help you and the domain holder find a fair, amicable resolution. The Mediator will help keep discussions constructive, so you can resolve the dispute quickly. Note that Mediation is optional.

Decision

A Decision on a dispute is made by a qualified domain dispute Specialist at Net Neutrals.
A Decision can result in the .ie domain registration being transferred to you, or the deletion of the domain, or no action being taken at all (if the dispute is refused).
Note that if the domain holder fails to acknowledge the dispute, the fees payable to Net Neutrals will be reduced as only one party’s input will need to be considered. (Summary Decision)

Opinion

You can ask a qualified domain dispute Specialist for a non-binding Opinion on the dispute subject matter.
This may be helpful if you are considering submitting a dispute through the Alternative Dispute Resolution Process or are considering escalating the matter through the Irish Court Service.
Note that no action is taken against the domain registration in this instance.
