    Profile

    Patrick Delaney represents automotive manufacturers in all phases of litigation involving Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act and Florida Lemon Law including arbitration before the Florida New Motor Vehicle Arbitration Board and in lawsuits throughout Florida and the Southeastern United States. He represents automobile manufacturers against negligence and strict liability claims based upon alleged product defects. In addition, he represents clients in casualty litigation defending companies against premises liability claims.

    Prior to joining RumbergerKirk, Patrick served as both an Assistant Public Defender and an Assistant Attorney General. He successfully argued cases at every level of the Florida courts and has extensive experience arguing before the Florida Supreme Court.

    Prior to attending law school, Patrick worked on Capitol Hill as a legislative staff member to United States Senator George V. Voinovich.

    Patrick authored “Sorry Linus, I Need Your Security Blanket: How the Smartphone, Constant Connectivity with the Internet, and Social Networks Act as Catalysts for Juror Misconduct,” 24 St. Thomas L. Rev 473 (Summer 2012). The article examines the ongoing problem of jurors using the Internet during voir dire, trial, and during deliberations to either conduct research or comment about the proceedings via social networking websites. The article looks to answer whether a burden upon defense counsel exists to monitor jurors during a trial and if counsel is ineffective for failing to do so.
