About Cynthia
Practice areas
- Communications and media: 10%
Florida's and federal wiretap statutes, including actions for wrongful recording of conversations. These claims also overlap with defamation claims.
- Construction and development: 10%
- Copyright infringement: 10%
Infringement actions include misuse of a copyright. Within this area, I also represent "John Doe" defendants who have been implicated for illegal downloads.
- Intellectual property: 10%
Intellectual property includes copyright, trademark, patent, and trade secrets. My IP practice focuses mostly on copyright, but also includes trademark and trade secrets, and primarily encompasses litigation.
- Libel and slander: 10%
In a world of endless blogs, Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, and more, a defamatory remark can spread like wildfire in seconds. The results can be quite injurious -- to both individuals and businesses. On the other side is our Constitutional First Amendment right to freedom of speech; weighing freedom of speech against a defamation claim is not always an easy issue and can present much controversy.
- Litigation: 10%
Sometimes, the only way to resolve a dispute - whether it is breach of contract, negligence, employee dispute, or nearly any other "civil matter" - is to file a lawsuit. Cynthia Conlin practices general civil litigation in both federal and state courts on both the plaintiffs' and defendants' side, for businesses and individuals.
- Trademark infringement: 10%
- Advertising: 5%
Misleading advertising often overlaps with consumer protection. It includes Florida statutory actions for misleading advertising, and more.
- Appeals: 5%
Appeals of orders and judgments to Florida's District Courts of Appeals, or, in federal cases, the Eleventh Circuit. Also appeals of county court orders to the circuit courts.
- Business: 5%
For my business clients, in addition to assisting them with litigation, I use a proactive approach to help prevent future issues that can result in litigation.
- Consumer protection: 5%
- Internet: 5%
"Internet Law" is a broad topic that engulfs other topics, but all focused on the Internet. Copyright Law, BitTorrent downloading, and Defamation (Libel/Slander).
- Lawsuits and disputes: 5%
Most of what I do is "lawsuits & disputes." This is a broad area, ranging from consumer-law issues to complex issues involving unfair competition or federal wiretapping laws.
