: Dear Keith:

: Beware of attorneys who preface their remarks with "without taking any professional responsibility for what is set forth here". . .

: Indeed, being slightly more familiar with this area of law than the average IP counsel, it is our position that Mr. Auslander was dead wrong.

: While US citizens have the 1st Amendment right to
: accurately express their opinions and experiences, (and have succesfully maintained first amendment comment sites such as MARRIOTSUX.COM), the act of Cybersquatting (or registering a trademark as a domain name in bad faith) can result in some significant liability.

: One should tread lightly and avoid taking advice from charlatans who guess at the answer without properly considering all facts and circumstances.

Dear Mr. Anderson,

If you take professional responsibility for you posts, it is my understanding that you may be liable for malpractice if what you advise is wrong. Particuarly in the State of California.

Go ahead and take professional responsibillity for what your post.

Now for professional responsibility --- what did you mean in you reference to charlatans in your post?

Lay it on the line who is the charlatan?

I can't even find you in Martindale-Hubbell where we are (av) rated.
