01 Authority
Confirm the claimant owns the work or has documented authorization to act.
02 Comparison
Preserve the original, disputed use, relevant URLs, dates and the material elements at issue.
03 Exceptions review
Consider licence, permission, fair use or fair dealing, public domain and other relevant limitations.
04 Correct route
Select the provider, platform, host, registrar, licensing discussion or legal referral that fits the issue.
05 Record and follow-up
Track submissions, responses, counter-notices, corrections and required escalation.
Quality and decision record
We retain the source list, approved scope, material assumptions, approved wording, outbound actions and a dated record of decisions appropriate to the engagement. Reporting focuses on verified progress and open issues, not unsupported claims about influence, rankings, removal or legal outcomes.
Escalation
Contested rights, threatened litigation, regulatory questions and requests for legal representation are assessed for referral to appropriately qualified professionals. The client is told when operational support reaches that boundary.
