Michael Rodenbaugh is a superb attorney
We have had complicated issues with: trademark, IP, TLD and secondary domain names. Mr. Rodenbaugh's advice and handling of each event has been superb. Unnecessary legal action has been avoided and necessary legal action has been very well handled. I highly recommend Mr. Rodenbaugh.
