About Edward Juan
Edward Juan Lynum is a former attorney who was admitted to practice law in Florida in 2005. He also gained admission to the New York Bar in 2012 and the District of Columbia Bar in 2009. His primary practice areas included criminal law, appeals, and juvenile law. Lynum was associated with Lynum & Associates, PLLC, located at 222 E Noble Ave, Bushnell, FL 33513. He earned his Juris Doctor from Florida A&M University College of Law in 2005, showcasing his commitment to legal education. Before embarking on his legal career, Lynum completed his undergraduate studies at the University of Miami, where he obtained a bachelor's degree in political science and philosophy.
This educational background provided him with a strong foundation for understanding complex legal issues. Throughout his career, he handled a variety of cases, ranging from criminal defense to juvenile law matters. His practice involved representing clients in both state and federal courts, addressing issues such as drug crimes and intricate appellate cases. Lynum was known for his dedication to his clients. He actively participated in community affairs and local business networking groups, demonstrating his commitment to the communities he served. His involvement in these activities not only enhanced his professional network but also allowed him to contribute positively to the local environment.
However, his legal career faced significant challenges in 2019 when he encountered disciplinary actions in Florida for failing to comply with a subpoena to testify before Florida disciplinary authorities, which ultimately led to his suspension. In 2020, Lynum faced further repercussions when he was disbarred in Florida for making disparaging statements about the judiciary and failing to comply with court orders. This disbarment had serious implications for his legal standing. Following these actions, the District of Columbia Court of Appeals disbarred him in 2021, further complicating his ability to practice law. As of February 2026, Lynum is not authorized to practice law in Florida, New York, or the District of Columbia. His disbarment in Florida and the subsequent reciprocal disbarment in the District of Columbia have rendered his licenses inactive in these jurisdictions.
In 2022, the New York Appellate Division, Third Department, suspended him due to his noncompliance with a subpoena in Florida. Given his disbarment and suspension across multiple jurisdictions, Lynum is currently not practicing law. Individuals seeking legal representation in his former practice areas should consult other qualified attorneys in the respective jurisdictions. His legal journey serves as a reminder of the importance of ethical compliance in the legal profession.
