What usually ties those who live in Palm Beach Gardens to Brazil: a Palm Beach County judgment, records at the Consulate General of Brazil in Miami and assets in Brazil.
The child of a Brazilian born in Palm Beach Gardens 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 Miami and then transcribed at the 1st Civil Registry Office of the domicile in Brazil or of the Federal District.
Brazilian law governs what is in Brazil and Florida law governs what happens in Palm Beach Gardens. CK Advogadas works in the first field. In the second, the proceeding is handled by a lawyer licensed in Florida, and the team indicates which American documents will be needed later in Brazil.
An American divorce does not erase the marriage at the Brazilian registry office. Those who live in Palm Beach Gardens and divorced in the Palm Beach County court need to take the judgment to Brazil: direct annotation if the divorce was a simple uncontested one, recognition by the STJ in other cases. Reading the judgment defines the route.
A document from Palm Beach Gardens goes to Brazil in three steps: a certified copy from the issuing body, such as the Palm Beach 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.
The property regime of those who married in Palm Beach Gardens does not automatically follow Florida law. Art. 7, §4, of the Law of Introduction to the Norms of Brazilian Law requires applying the law of the spouses' domicile and, if different, that of the first marital domicile. The difference shows up in the division and probate of assets located in Brazil.
To sell property in Brazil while living in Palm Beach Gardens, the power of attorney needs special powers and public form. The safest route is to execute it at the Consulate General of Brazil in Miami. 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 Palm Beach Gardens.
