A .law domain is restricted to licensed legal professionals. Clients see that before they visit your site.
What is a .law domain?
.law is restricted to licensed legal professionals, making it exclusively available to qualified attorneys, law firms, law schools, courts, bar associations, and recognized legal regulators. An independent verification agency confirms credentials at registration and monitors eligibility on an ongoing basis.
Inactive or non-practicing lawyers do not qualify. If your license is current and you are authorized to practice, you meet the standard.
That restriction is what gives the domain extension its value. Every active .law domain belongs to someone who earned the right to hold it.
Not everyone can register here. To hold a .law domain, your license must be active and verifiable. That standard is what makes the address worth having.
Your bio says you are qualified. Your domain confirms it. A .law web address signals verified credentials even before a client reads a single line about you.
Anyone can register a .com. Nobody can fake a .law. The verification process makes that gap visible every time a client finds your address.
Restricted eligibility keeps registration numbers far below open TLDs. Firm names, practice areas, and location combinations have a much better chance of being open here.
Search for your firm name, your own name, or a practice area combination. It’s likely still available in .law than in .com.
Complete checkout and submit your credentials. The registry uses an independent agency to confirm eligibility before your domain goes live.
Connect your .law to your firm site, attorney profile, or professional email. Your .law web address needs no introduction.
.law is not for everyone. It is built for the legal profession specifically, and registration stays that way. Eligibility is exclusive to the following:
If your practice revolves around licensed legal work, a .law domain helps make that instantly recognizable online.
You cleared the bar. Registration should not be the hard part. Domain.com handles the setup so you can focus on the practice.
Earning your qualification for a .law domain was the hard part. Registering it shouldn't be.
A restricted top-level domain for the legal profession. Only licensed attorneys, law firms, law schools, courts, bar associations, and legal regulators qualify. Credentials are verified by an independent agency at registration.
Active licensed attorneys, law firms formed by qualified lawyers, accredited law schools, courts, bar associations, and recognized legal regulators. Inactive or non-practicing lawyers do not meet the eligibility requirements.
Because the restriction makes it valuable. Every .law domain belongs to a verified legal professional. That gives the domain extension immediate credibility and exclusivity that not even a .com can offer, and it is what clients see when they find your address.
No. The registry verifies credentials at registration using an independent agency. Registrations that fail eligibility checks are suspended or deleted without a refund.
Search engines do not rank by domain extension, although a .law domain signals clear topical relevance for legal searches, which can make searchers click when you appear in the search results.
Search for your preferred name at Domain.com. Complete registration and submit credentials for verification. Your domain goes live once the registry confirms eligibility.
Yes. Restricted registration keeps the pool smaller than most TLDs. Firm names, practice area terms, and location combinations are still available.
