Need to Change Domain Names

The previous IT person some kind of way owns my company's current domain names. The owner now wants me to change those domain names so this person no longer has anything to do with the organization. One of the domains points to the website and the router (oh by the way I do not have the password to the router) and the other domain name is the email address of the employees. What do I need to do to make this a smooth transition? Help, I have less than a week to complete this effort.

You need to contact the company where the domainn name was registered and go from there

I did and I was told that that could be a long drawn out process to dispute ownership.
With only a week you need to create a new domain.  Go to GoDaddy or some other domain host.  Find an available domain on their website then call them.  They have 24x7 telephone support.  
Not sure how your router is involved in this.


to try to get your old domain back in a hurry....
If you do a whois lookup on your domain you can find out the domain admin....the registrar of your domain will only send a password reset info to the domain admin email address....
If you have this email address then you can take control of it.
