Hello guys,
I've been out from the domain game for a few years building my other internet ventures and I'm completely lost now.
To be short: I have purchased an established site from a canadian guy a couple of years ago and been working on developing it. The domain was regged in 1999 and been active since then growing every single day, thanks to my efforts to rank it at google and exchange links (visitors wise).
Today I got a e-mail from a lawyer who's telling me that I'm using the domain name in a bad faith and their client has US based trademark named same as my domain, and now they tell me I better transfer the domain name to them or I'll be facing them in the court.
I got really confused and stressed, after all the money and time I invested in the domain name.
My business is located out of the US and my domain contents isn't related to the complaintaints business. However I'm still worried.
I would use any of your suggestions and tips of what to do in this matter as I dont want to loose the domain and ready to fight them in the court or whatever is needed to keep my domain with my business.
Thanks and I appreciate your help and replies.
