Israel Sands was born in Cuba and came to Miami in 1961. He graduated from University of Miami with a major in Psychology in 1974. He received his J.D. from the University of Miami School of Law in 1978, and the Master of Laws (LL.M.) in Estate Planning in 2011.

Positive: Professionalism, Responsiveness
Israel made the process of setting up a trust an easy one. He was very knowledgeable and made sure I understood what was happening each step along the way. He also charges a flat rate so there are no hidden surprises with fees. All-in-all it was a very positive experience.

Israel is very professional and knowledgeable. He creates a personal connection with his clients and goes far beyond what any other attorney would do. He is fluent in multiple languages including English, Spanish, and French. Israel has deep connections throughout the South Florida community. He is one of the most interesting and intelligent people you will ever meet. Highly recommended.

Amazing and compassionate attorney! Israel assisted us in ensuring we did not encounter any problems related to probate or guardianship issues with my parents. Unfortunately we had to experience end of life issues with my dad last year, and everything he recommended and we did was a tremendous help so we didn't have to worry about "business issues" and could focus on his care and having quality time with him in his last days. It has been extremely easy to deal with all the business details after my dad's passing and we are ever grateful for his kindness and professionalism! Going forward we know
