What usually ties those who live in Orlando to Brazil: a Orange County judgment, records at the Consulate General of Brazil in Orlando and assets in Brazil.
When the Orange County Final Judgment also decides custody, support or division of assets, or when the divorce was contested, the judgment needs recognition by the Superior Court of Justice to have effect in Brazil. Until annotation or recognition, the marriage remains valid under Brazilian law, which prevents a new marriage in Brazil and complicates probate and the sale of property.
CK Advogadas is a Brazilian law firm, with lawyers registered with the OAB, and works on the Brazilian part of each case. Proceedings in the Orange County Circuit Court, American immigration and matters governed by Florida law require a lawyer licensed by The Florida Bar. When the case has both sides, the team prepares the Brazilian part and aligns the documents with the local lawyer.
The child of a Brazilian born in Orlando is an American citizen by birth and a native-born Brazilian when registered at a competent Brazilian office, under art. 12, I, c, of the Constitution. Registration is done at the Consulate General of Brazil in Orlando and then transcribed at the 1st Civil Registry Office of the domicile in Brazil or of the Federal District.
A document from Orlando goes to Brazil in three steps: a certified copy from the issuing body, such as the Orange County Clerk or the Florida Department of Health, an apostille from the Florida Department of State and a sworn translation. Without one of them, the registry office and the STJ return the request.
To sell property in Brazil while living in Orlando, the power of attorney needs special powers and public form. The safest route is to execute it at the Consulate General of Brazil in Orlando. With it, the attorney-in-fact signs the deed in Brazil, and CK Advogadas follows the certificates, taxes and registration.
Service starts with the document: judgment, certificate or property record. With it, the team defines the route in Brazil, the document list and what must be done at the consulate. The history is centralized so you can follow each step from Orlando.
