Law firm Levinson Axelrod has threatened to file suit under the Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act (ACPA) against a former associate who registered the levinsonaxelrod.net domain name to create a gripe website titled, "Levinson Axelrod Sucks." The former associate registered the gripe site domain name to criticize attorneys at his former firm, including the statement that its listing of partners as "SuperLawyers" is a "super scam." If your trademark has been registered in a domain name, you may have rights under the Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act or the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy.
