George and Cindy Anthony replace attorney

ORLANDO, Fla. (WOFL FOX 35) - Mark Lippman, of Lippman Law Offices, confirmed with FOX 35 that his firm will represent George and Cindy Anthony in legal affairs, as it relates to the murder trial of their daughter, Casey.

The firm will pick up where Brad Conway left off before announcing his resignation last week.

"This is a continuation of our representation of them from their mortgage foreclosure case as we have never stopped representing them," Lippman wrote in an statement sent to FOX 35. "We have only expanded our role based on Mr. Conway resigning from the case."

Conway abruptly resigned as the attorney representing Cindy and George last week, because a motion filed by Casey Anthony's defense earlier this month regarding an ongoing dispute over records belonging to a Texas EquuSearch, the organization which helped search for Caylee Marie following her disappearance in the summer of 2008.

Conway is now considered a witness to what he has called untrue allegations about him and an inaccurate legal pleading filed in court.

Conway says it's the "failure of the defense to verify the facts" that forced his resignation.  He is the second attorney to represent George and Cindy. Orlando attorney Mark NeJame initially represented the Anthonys but now represents Texas EquuSearch.

Casey Anthony is charged with first-degree murder in the death of her 2-year-old daughter Caylee Marie Anthony. She says a baby sitter kidnapped her daughter.

Anthony has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder and has said a baby sitter kidnapped her daughter, Caylee. The toddler's remains were found in December 2008, about six months after the mother said she last saw her alive. Anthony's trial is scheduled to start next May.
