Domain Dispute Negotiation

Domain Name Dispute Resolution Overview | UDRP Complaints | ACPA Civil Suits

Since the UDRP went into effect in 2000,the balance of power in domain name dispute negotiations has shifted. By now, case law has made very clear the wide array of circumstances under which a trademark owner is entitled to transfer of a domain name from a cybersquatter. Furthermore, by now most cybersquatters are aware of the speed and low cost of domain dispute arbitration proceedings.

As a result, cybersquatters know that if they ignore you, you are going to file a UDRP complaint and take their domain name while they will get nothing. Even worse, if they lose a few domain disputes that fact can be used against them in future proceedings. They become branded a known cybersquatter with a pattern of bad faith conduct, making it difficult or impossible to succeed in future domain name disputes.
