Mr. Cynamon is a senior litigator who handles civil trial and appellate litigation, including class actions, corporate merger and acquisition litigation, commercial product liability cases, nuclear energy litigation, employment discrimination cases and insurance subrogation and defense actions. He has tried or argued jury and non jury cases in federal and state courts in nine states and has briefed and argued appeals in most of the federal appellate circuits. Mr. Cynamon has been honored by his peers in the 2010 edition of Best Lawyers in America as a leading commercial litigator. In the 2009 edition of the Washingtonian's annual top lawyers list, Mr. Cynamon was named a "Star of the Bar," one of just 30 DC attorneys to be recognized for being at the very top of their profession.

In September 2007, he was named Litigator of the Year by the Washington Business Journal for his representation of four Kuwaiti detainees held without charge at the U.S. Military Base in Guantanamo, Cuba, successfully convincing the U.S. Supreme Court to reverse itself, something that had not occurred in more than 30 years.

In addition to his litigation practice, Mr. Cynamon has also maintained a pro bono practice throughout his career. In 2008, he was honored with the prestigious Wiley Branton Award from the Washington Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights and Urban Affairs, the highest recognition the nonprofit civil rights advocacy organization bestows.
