Introduction: The Ram & Rama Law Formula for Success

At Ram & Rama Law, we understand that our clients’ stories are unique. We take pride in representing our clients within a personal legal framework, understanding what is currently at stake for individuals, families, and businesses in the U.S., based on their own circumstances. Headed by Rajesh Ram and Mira Rama, our firm’s experience traverses decades, blended with compassionate, person-centric legal advocacy.

In this section of our site we present a selection of detailed individual case studies. We highlight the benefit of our hands-on approach to advocacy for our clients, allowing us to deliver positive results through strategic insight and diligence. These case studies are real-world examples of how our expertise within family law, criminal defense and corporate legal matters is applied – and how our mission continues to be to educate, empower and advocate for our clients in all phases of the process.

Case Study 1: Protecting Your Parental Rights in A Complex Child Custody Dispute

After weathering a contentious divorce, Jamie W. suddenly found herself facing a child custody battle for her children. With her ex seeking sole custody based on accusations of instability, and seeking to restrict Jamie’s visitation, everything was on the line-specifically Jamie’s relationship with her two small, dependent children.

Knowing this was a high stakes matter, and one that could be emotionally and psychologically devastating for the kids, Jamie’s family, and even our team, we set out to conduct an extensive review of Jamie’s parenting time, solicited statements from teachers and neighbours, consulted with family members, and even worked with child psychologists who could directly examine the kids’ well-being. Then we built a solid case that highlighted Jamie’s full commitment while underscoring the focus on the children’s best interests.

Through deft negotiation and, when necessary, aggressive litigation, Ram & Rama Law achieved joint legal and physical custody for Jamie. The court agreed with us. It recognized Jamie’s commitment as a parent-and it rejected unfounded allegations calling into doubt her parenting skills. Jamie’s children have now been able to enjoy the benefits of having a safe space and access to both parents.

This case illustrates how our firm will help protect the following parental rights, ensuring that the voice of a loving mom in the family court system is heard.

  • Right to joint legal and physical custody
  • Right to fair visitation schedules
  • Right to be heard in court proceedings
  • Right to challenge unfounded allegations

Case Study 2: Obtaining A Favorable Outcome in a Large Scope Contested Corporate Contract Case

Background: A mid-sized technology start-up, SwiftLogic Solutions, was confronted with a significant breach of contract claim by a vendor seeking $1.2 million in damages. The dispute was not only a threat to the company’s financial standing, but also to its business reputation and continued ability to operate. SwiftLogic needed seasoned counsel to provide guidance on the intricate contractual issues and defend its position.

Our Strategy: Ram & Rama Law’s corporate law attorneys quickly mounted an analysis team to carefully review the allegedly breached contract as well as the history of communications between the parties and the vendor’s performance history. Drawing upon our extensive knowledge and experience in contract law and negotiation, we discovered procedural missteps and identified ambiguities in the vendor’s procedural claims. We commenced mediation as a means for finding a resolution to this matter early on, without further damaging the client’s important business relationships.

Outcome: As a result of our strategic planning and targeting, along with our advocacy, the matter resolved for less than 10% of the original claim. The parties reached agreement on changes to their terms of collaboration on future projects. SwiftLogic avoided engaging in protracted litigation and reputational damage, while also fortifying contractual protections.

Impact: Solving business problems with practical and successful solutions is what this case is all about – we protected our clients’ business interests, and helped them set up for long-term success.

Case Study 3: Standing for the Innocent in a Criminal Case

Our client, Marcus S., was accused of theft as a felony after being misidentified as the burglar of multiple retail stores. Although the state had no physical evidence on their side, their accusations still carried legal ramifications and could taint Marcus’s reputation. Frustrated and frightened by the allegations against him, he called Ram & Rama Law.

We immediately requested all surveillance videos and police reports available to reveal inconsistencies in the prosecution’s timeline and witnesses’ testimonies. Our attorneys brought an investigator aboard to review evidence and track down potential alibi witnesses. We established an airtight defense that prominently featured procedural mistakes and the unreliable nature of their eyewitness identification.

The charges were dropped before trial, thanks to our thorough investigation and our effective case presentation. Marcus was able to resume living his life and his record remained clean.

Here is another example of how our firm is committed to defending the accused and advocating for justice even in trying cases.

Case Study 4: Successfully Handing a Family Adoption

Client Situation: The Harrisons wanted to adopt a new child. The Bakersfield couple was excited about the possibility of expanding their family, yet wasn’t sure that they could navigate the adoption process – at least not without assistance with all its legal requirements and voluminous paperwork. They were worried there might be a mis-step along the way. With that in mind, the couple asked Ram & Rama Law to assist with the process to make certain it would follow all legal conditions.

Our Solution: Our family law attorneys guided the client from start-to-finish, helping with initial consultations and home studies, petitions and representation at court, coordination with adoption agencies and compliance with state and federal regulations. In essence, our attorneys assisted the Harrisons with every step as required. In addition, we prepared them for each interaction, answered questions on their minds, assuaged worries as appropriate, and educated them on what to expect.

Ending Result: Many months of behind-the-scenes work helped ensure that the adoption occurred without a hitch. The Bakersfield couple avoided any issues in the process that might have caused problems. At last, they could bring home their new child, legally and with peace-of-mind.

Difference We Made: This experience speaks to our commitment to aiding a family’s transition in creating a stable and harmonious environment, while providing clarity and confidence in the moments that matter most.

Case Study 5: Making Sure Your Small Business Is Compliant

Background: When GreenLeaf Organics, a booming area retailer, encountered shifting regulatory obligations concerning employment law and consumer protection, they engaged Ram & Rama Law to provide preemptive legal advice. As the company grew, so did their exposure, and management sought to avoid the potential costs associated with compliance issues down the road.

Our Strategy: We diligently assessed GreenLeaf Organics’ business operations, employment agreements, and patron policies. Our attorneys advised management and staff in relevant ways, drafted updated policy books, manuals, and memos, and implemented routine review procedures to help ensure compliance with constantly evolving state and federal law.

Outcome: GreenLeaf Organics passed a surprise inspection after we reviewed everything, avoiding any issues with fines or penalties. The preventative program also bolstered employee morale and consumer confidence.

Impact: This case shows how we add value as trusted legal counsel to help businesses succeed by staying ahead of the curve in regards to compliance issues and instilling a culture of compliance.
