About Jill A.
Jill A. Prenger is an attorney practicing in Florida who built her early career in public defense before moving into private trial work. She is known among colleagues for a steady courtroom presence and straightforward advocacy. Her work has ranged from client counseling to contested trials.
She earned her Juris Doctor from the University of Kansas in 2015. During law school she pursued coursework and clinics that emphasized trial procedure and criminal law. The degree set a quick transition into active practice; she began her professional career the same year.
Prenger started as an Assistant Public Defender in 2015 in the Office of the Public Defender under Kathleen A. Smith. That role placed her in the day-to-day grind of criminal defense. She handled arraignments, pretrial motions and hearings, and prepared cases for trial. The experience required fast legal research, frequent court appearances and direct interaction with clients facing criminal charges.
In 2021 she moved into private practice and took on trial lawyer roles at both Camadeco Law Group, PLLC and the Law Office of Scott T. Moorey. Those positions expanded her trial docket and exposed her to a broader mix of felony and misdemeanor matters. She tried cases in front of judges and juries, presented evidence, examined witnesses and argued motions from the defense table. The shift to private practice allowed her to carry cases from intake through verdict and begin managing case strategy across a range of matters.
Prenger maintains professional memberships and continues to participate in the local legal community. Colleagues describe her approach as practical; she prepares methodically and adapts in court when facts or witness testimony shift. She currently practices at the Law Office of Scott T. Moorey, where she handles criminal defense matters in Florida.
