Domain name disputes are becoming more common all the time. Some cybersquatting and trademark infringement allegations against domain owners are legitimate.  Some are not. If you have received a cybersquatting threat letter demanding that you turn over your domain name to a third party or been named as a Respondent in an ACPA or UDRP/ICANN proceeding, you need the help of an experienced domain dispute attorney.  High value domain names and domain name porfolios need to be protected.  We can help protect your valuable domain assets.

CADNA, Just a Start!!!

The Coalition Against Domain Name Abuse (CADNA), is a new group backed by some of the largest organizations in the world, such as Dell and Hilton. CADNA's goal is to make cybersquatting laws, including the Anti-Cybersquatting Act (ACPA), more stringent so as to deter, and ultimately prevent, cybersquatters from "stealing" millions of dollars per year from legitimate businesses. While a non-profit coalition like CADNA is a great start, especially in light of proposed policy changes to ICANN that would make it easier for cybersquatters to remain anonymous, domain name and trademark owners must still be cognizant of the ways to protect their current domains and expand into new valuable domains. Moreover, should you be victimized by a cybersquatter, you need a lawyer that can explain the most cost effective and timely method of reacquiring your intellectual property.

You can contact us today if you would like us to assist you in a comprehensive domain name portfolio protection plan. In addition, should WIPO or the NAF arbitration process be required, we can assist in filing a complaint, responding to a complaint, or simply navigating your way through the UDRP.

JOHN: Welcome to VTalk Radio Tech Spotlight. Sponsored by Traverse Legal, PLC . Today we are talking about protecting your domain name with Enrico Schaefer, specialist in technology and domain law. Good Morning, Enrico.

ENRICO:  Good Morning, John.  Thanks for having me today.

JOHN:  I understand you have got some great tips to share with everybody about protecting their domain name?

ENRICO: Yeah I do, John. You know, people do not realize that their domains are always at risk. People register their domain name and they think, great, I own the domain. They put up a great website, they put up a merchant account, and before you know it, they're doing tens or  hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of business through that website, they wake up one morning and their domain is gone. Their website is gone and they call me because they are in crisis wanting to know what they can do. What we often find, John, is that these people who've lost their website did so through their own negligence.

JOHN:  What in the world could you do to lose your website after you've already registered it?
