    Unfortunately, it doesn't really matter what you feel when it comes to having to pay legal fees.

    Your feeling on that is rather correct. What's potentially concerning, though,
    is if the domain infringes the holder's trademark right.

    There's a bunch around here on domain-trademark disputes. Feel free to read
    through some as I'm rather lazy pointing out what's been pointed out gazillion
    times.

    Maybe...except if you're intending to make money off of someone else's work
    by leading people to think you're either the mark holder or endorsed by them.
    That's one thing trademark holders don't exactly approve of.

    Review sites are rather sticky. Some have been rendered "okay" by the mark
    holder, others weren't so lucky.

    IMHO it depends who you're dealing with. Hopefully it's one who isn't so-called
    unreasonable, yet might have the so-called law on their side.
