Attorney Profile

For Margarita Arango Moore–a long-time Miami resident–family means everything. Together with her husband, she has had the privilege of raising her three daughters in the same city where she grew up. Instilled with a strong sense of community, she has been practicing law in South Florida since 1999 and opened her own firm in 2008.

When it came to her profession, she discovered early on that she had a passion for working with families. Nothing is as rewarding for Margarita than being able to restore harmony to a broken family, or reunite a child with his mother. Through years of experience, she has developed a keen understanding of family law and of all of its emotional components. She treats each case with the utmost level of professionalism and sensitivity, offering her clients knowledge and compassion.

Margarita Arango Moore has not only distinguished herself as an esteemed attorney, but as an advocate for the children in her community. As a Board Member of Kidside, she has dedicated much of her time and energy towards raising funds for family court services. She is also an active member of the Family Law Inns of Court.
