I will probably get slammed for this, but it isnt a bad idea. In the cases we have handled that involved domain name/ trademark issues, we went right to federal court anyway. UDRP is expensive and only gets more expensive as you add domain names to the arbitration. Usually instead of fighting a federal case of trademark infringement most of the companies using infringing domain names just transferred them back instead of fighting.

It was actually cheaper and faster than going the UDRP route.

The best way to deal with this is simply file for your trademark(s). If you have a trademark then you really dont have much to worry about. We do trademarks for basically $1000 or you can do TMs yourself directly on the USPTO.gov website.
