My guess is between -$250,000 to -$850,000

Here's how I got there:

The cost for an average TM lawsuit is $250,000 to $500,000. That's YOUR attorney fees.

Statutory damages under ACPA is up to $100,000.

Under exceptional circumstances, it could be another $250,000+ (that's for THEIR attorney fees).

Cybersquatting: don't do it!
