Wills & Trusts Lawyer

Creating a will that reflects your wishes

RAM Law and Title, PLLC helps families across Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach, from Coral Gables to Coconut Grove and South Miami, create a Florida-compliant last will that names beneficiaries, appoints a personal representative, and can designate guardians for minor children. We explain execution requirements under Florida law (written will, your signature, and two witnesses present together) and offer a self-proving affidavit at signing to speed future court review. For a broader roadmap of documents and updates as life changes, we tie the will into the rest of the plan.

Establishing trusts to streamline transfers

A revocable living trust can help your family avoid probate, centralize asset management, and provide clear instructions if you become incapacitated. Depending on your goals, we also advise on irrevocable structures, special needs planning, and testamentary trusts that activate through your will. RAM Law and Title drafts plain-English provisions, aligns titles and beneficiary designations, and we show you how to fund the trust, because an unfunded trust does nothing.

Will vs. trust: what fits your situation

Many clients benefit from both: a living trust for major assets and a pour-over will to capture anything left outside the trust. We’ll weigh factors like privacy, cost, your timeline, and the nature of real property in Miami-Dade to recommend a practical mix. If minimizing court involvement is a priority, we’ll explain how a funded trust compares to the court process outlined in probate & estate administration, and when each path applies.

Our process, from first conversation to signing

We begin with a focused consult to understand your goals and family dynamics, then deliver draft documents with clear summaries. After review, we handle signing with proper formalities and provide organized copies for your records and fiduciaries. To complete the plan, we coordinate with your bank and advisor, and we include guidance on advance directives so financial and medical decisions are covered if you can’t act.

Planning that adapts with you

Life changes, like a marriage, a new child, or a home purchase in Coral Gables, should trigger simple updates. RAM Law and Title keeps your will and trust aligned with beneficiary forms, homestead considerations, and tax-aware transfers so your plan remains current without complexity.

Most estate plans are never tested. The ones that are, are tested in a courtroom.

I have litigated the aftermath: the will contest, the missing heir, the homestead fight, the personal representative who did not qualify in time. I draft with that in mind, and if a plan I did not write ends up in probate court, I am the one who takes it there.
