My company offered to buy the domain. The person said, "NO" We asked if they would be so kind as to link our site to their homepage e.g. "If you were looking for... click here" I am sure there was money involved in this request.
They said NO!
So the company staff lawyers took it from them because we already were an already established trademark. In this case it was two names mashed together.
I would work with them if it's a company because they most likely are paying for lawyers anyway and this just gives them something to do!
