Approximately 25
years ago, Dennis Ponn and Enid Miller Ponn formed a legal partnership under
Miller & Ponn, P.A. After practicing for 15 years in Coral Gables,
Florida, the firm relocated to Weston, Florida and continues to represent
clients in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach Counties.
The firm’s
practice is concentrated in the areas of residential and commercial real estate
closings, refinancing of real estate, short sales and foreclosures, title
insurance, landlord-tenant, collaborative family law, family law mediation, pre
and post-nuptial agreements, probate and estate planning.
ENID MILLER PONN
Enid
Miller Ponn is a family law attorney and the director of The Center for
Collaborative Divorce and Mediation.
Throughout her more than 25 years of practice, she has specialized in the
areas of family law, collaborative family law, pre-nuptials, post-nuptials,
family law mediation, and wills and trusts. She received her certification
by the Florida Supreme Court as a family law mediator in 1993 and since then has
experienced a very high degree of success in settling cases within her mediation
practice.
Although Enid is a Broward County divorce attorney, after litigating divorces
for fifteen years in Miami Dade, she decided to limit her practice exclusively
to non-adversarial dispute resolution techniques and processes. For over a
decade, she has been facilitating settlements specifically suited to each
family’s needs. She resolves cases with as little conflict as possible,
and always without litigation. Enid brings her twenty-five years of
experience as a family law attorney and her extensive mediation background to
The Center to guide you through your separation, divorce or civil union
dissolution with compassion, and understanding of the complicated legal issues.
Enid has completed extensive formal and advanced trainings and workshops as a
collaborative family lawyer and has lectured to national, state, and local
audiences on the topics of collaborative family law and mediation. She is
a founding member and on the board of directors of the Collaborative Family
Lawyers of South Florida, a member of the Collaborative Council of Florida, the
Collaborative Family Law Institute, and the International Academy of
Collaborative Professionals. She is also on the Legislation Committee of
the Family Law Section of the Florida Bar and the Mediation and Collaborative
Law Committee of the Family Law Section of the Florida Bar. Enid has
published articles and has co-authored chapters and essays on collaborative
law-related topics in educational journals and books.
She is a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of U.N.C. Chapel Hill, received her Masters
Degree from Johns Hopkins School for Advanced International Studies and her law
degree from the University of Miami, School of Law in 1984, cum laud.
Enid is bilingual and can, therefore, act as a collaborative attorney or
mediator in either Spanish or English.
Ms. Ponn also prepares wills and trusts, and in the event a loved one or
someone you know passes away, she can handle the probate administration of the
estate. She has probated hundreds of estates in a timely and efficient manner,
not allowing estates to linger on months or years beyond when they should be
closed.
