About Lina
Lina Coloca built her legal foundation at the University of Miami. She earned a Bachelor of Arts in 1990 and returned to the same campus to complete her J.D. in 1993. Those years in Miami shaped her early interest in courtroom work and local practice.
She began her career in the mid-1990s and took a position at Reyes, O Shea & Coloca, P.A. in 1994. That move placed her squarely in Miami’s busy legal environment. Over time she handled matters that took her into state and federal courtrooms, including filings in the Southern District of Florida.
Coloca’s memberships reflect a lawyer engaged with both the local and broader bar. She holds active memberships in the Florida State Bar and the Dade County Bar Association. She is also a member of the American Bar Association and the Association of Trial Lawyers America. Those affiliations have kept her connected to developments in litigation practice and trial procedure.
Her work has tended toward litigated matters. In practice she has managed pretrial preparation, motion practice and courtroom appearances. She has represented clients in hearings and trials in Florida courts and in the Southern District of Florida. Coloca’s background suggests steady involvement in the procedural and tactical aspects of civil litigation.
Colleagues describe her as thorough in preparation and pragmatic in courtroom settings. She has balanced casework with participation in bar activities. That mix has kept her engaged in the day-to-day grind of litigation while maintaining ties to the legal community that shaped her early years after law school.
Throughout her career she has remained based in Miami, practicing at Reyes, O Shea & Coloca, P.A. The firm affiliation that appears on her record dates back to her early years as a lawyer. Her experience spans state and federal dockets and the kinds of disputes that require litigation skills rather than transactional negotiation.
She currently concentrates her practice on civil litigation in Florida state and federal courts.
