Richard J. Preira
Partner
Richard J. Preira has successfully handled complex matrimonial cases and high-profile criminal defense litigation for more
than thirty years in South Florida. Before being recruited by SMGQ to lead their Family Law Practice Group in 2012, he was
the managing partner for several successful boutique litigation firms.
He is regularly'selected for inclusion in Super Lawyers for his practice in marital and family law, and was listed in Florida
Trend Magazine's "Legal Elite"as among the best marital and family law attorneys in Florida. He is an AV-rated attorney
by Martindale-Hubbell.
Rick is devoted to serving the South Florida community. A long-time resident of Miami Beach, he serves on the Miami Beach
Board of Adjustment and Miami Beach Charter Review Board. He is on the Board of Directors of Kidside, the fundraising arm
to Miami-Dade County Family Court Services. He was a charter member of the First Family Law American Inn of Court and
later served as its President. He is also a member and former President of the Miami Beach Bar Association and a former
chairman of a Florida Bar Grievance Committee.
Rick is a Supreme Court of Florida Certified Family Mediator, Guardian ad Litem, qualified expert witness in marital and
family law matters, and a pro bono advocate on behalf of petitioners seeking marriage annulments before the Metropolitan
Tribunal of the Archdiocese of Miami. He is a frequent lecturer on Florida family law.
He is admitted to practice law in all Florida state courts, before all federal district courts in Florida, the 4th, 5th and 11th
Circuits of the United States Court of Appeals, and the Supreme Court of the United States of America. He has also been
admitted pro hoc vice to practice law in federal courts in New York, North Carolina, and California.
Rick is a fitness and sports enthusiast who can be seen running on Miami Beach in the early dawn and cycling between
Miami Beach and the Florida Keys on the weekends. He has completed the New York Marathon, Chicago Marathon (twice),
Marine Corps Marathon, and Pan Mass Challenge Cycling Event to raise funds for the Dana Farber Cancer Institute. He and
his daughter, Jamie, are both PADI Certified Advanced Open Water Scuba Divers and dive buddies. He competes locally in
triathlons, half-marathons and adventure races, is a devoted Ashtanga Yoga practitioner, and enjoys spinning, Sanctuary 7
Pilates, and paddle boarding. He has cycled the San Juan Islands and mountains in Bryce-Zion, Utah. He will accept almost
any challenge that will make him break a sweat, including running five miles up Mount Washington without stopping.
Extended Bio »
PRACTICE AREAS:
Marital and Family Law
Rick handles all aspects of marital and family law, including: Dissolution of Marriage; Paternity; Jurisdiction Disputes; Name
Changes; Parenting Plans; Relocation; Modification; Enforcement; Hague Convention (International Child Abduction);
Division of Assets and Liabilities; Child Support; and Prenuptial and Postnuptial Agreements. He has also extensively
testified as an expert witness on the issue of attorney fees in marital and family law proceedings. He is regularly appointed
by Circuit Court Judges to serve as a Special Master in order to preside over depositions and adjudicate discovery disputes.
He is often court-appointed to serve as a Guardian ad Litem in family proceedings. He was privileged to serve as a
Guardian ad Litem in a highly contested multi-jurisdictional custody dispute involving children with special needs.
Criminal Defense:
Rick has represented criminal defendants in Aruba, Colombia, Ecuador, Panama, Guatemala, Mexico, Washington D.C., New
York, California, Florida, Texas, North Carolina, Connecticut, Michigan, and Maryland. He has successfully defended
individuals accused of Narcotics and Drug Trafficking; White Collar Crimes, Real Estate Fraud, Mortgage Fraud,
Medicare/Medicaid, Insurance Fraud, Money Laundering, Public Corruption, RICO Racketeering, Internet Crimes, Grand Jury
Investigations, Congressional Investigations, Domestic Violence, Asset Forfeitures, Sentencing Hearing/Sentence
Reductions, Criminal Appeals, Criminal Investigations, Weapons charges, Assault, Theft, Burglary, Robbery, Juvenile
Offenses, Probation violations, Perjury, Murder, Conspiracy to Murder, and Foreign Enemy Cases.
Notably, in State v. Thompson, 507 So.2d 1074 (Fla. 1987), Rick persuaded the Florida Supreme Court to reverse an en
banc opinion of the Third District Court of Appeal and determine that the United States Constitution required that Florida
http://www.smgqlaw.com/attomeys/Richard+J./Preira/ 5/l/2013
Richard J. Preira- SMGQLaw.com - Coral Gables Business Attorneys Page 2 of 7
law be changed in order to permit a testifying criminal defendant to confer privately with counsel while giving testimony,
thereby reversing the conviction of his client, Wayne Thompson.
Litigation and Dispute Resolution:
Though a savvy and seasoned litigator, Rick recognizes that successful litigation and the advantageous resolution of disputes
require timing, deliberation and tactic, not brute force. Brute force is wildly expensive and inefficient. Based upon this
philosophy and his successful resolution of the most contentious of cases, Rick is a highly sought after Florida Supreme
Court Certified Family Mediator. He is frequently recommended as a Family Law Mediator by Circuit Court Family Division
Judges in Miami-Dade and Broward Counties.
