In November, Mike Sorrentino sued Abercrombie & Fitch for $4 million for allegedly using his trademarked catchphrases such as "GTL," as well as profiting from a publicity stunt in which the company said it would pay him not to wear its clothing.

Sorrentino also has battled his father and a former manager, and been sued by Dilligaf, a clothing retailer that says Sorrentino failed to promote its products.

Jenni Farley, aka JWoww, was sued by a tanning lotion company, claiming it allegedly helped her create a branded potion. Farley also was targeted by her ex-boyfriend/manager, who claims to have helped her score promotional deals. One of Farley's efforts was Filthy Couture, a clothing line that was shut down after a threatened trademark lawsuit.
