Biography

Rick is an accomplished attorney who has been practicing law in South Florida for more than 35 years.  He brings a unique background to his practice, specializing in Marital and Family Law.   His early career as a Criminal Defense attorney allowed him to hone his skills as a seasoned litigator, an architect of conflict resolution and negotiator.  Regularly listed in Florida Trend Magazine’s “Legal Elite”, The Wall Street Journal’s “Top Attorneys In Florida” and a Florida “Super Lawyer” for marital and family law, Rick handles high profile clients, complex family law cases, and sensitive Family Law mediations.   Rick’s success comes from his dedication to serving his clients with exceptional attention.  It is his respect for the law, his devotion to the families and clients he serves, and his continued service to his community that makes him one of the most sought after South Florida Family Law attorneys.   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.  In mid 2016 he moved his Family Law Practice to a new home with Greenspoon Marder Law, after being courted by the firm.   His decision to move was based on GM Law’s ability to provide his practice extensive resources to offer his clients, while still aligning with his culture of attentiveness, responsiveness and creative solutions typically found only in smaller entrepreneurial firms. Rick and his expert firm will continue to serve families and clients with unparalleled commitment and intuitive counsel.
